feels weird doing it at home and not in works time but thats 2020 for ya.
2020 quiz is up. Catchphrases
Thank you. It's an annual classic and a great waste of time.
how many did you get?
Love these.
32 so far.
Just to clarify they're sayings, not actually catch phrases.
i've got 35 so far..there's a couple I'm sure I know but can't get the exact phrasing!
A poor 22 and I'm the same, I'm sure I know them just can't get the right wording...I really hate these - they get posted and I always end up getting sucked in by them...hahaha, I end up wasting hours trying to work them out and never can then resort to assistance as I can't seem to walk away.
Given workload, I'm strangely happy to be doing this one.
As usual, thanks for posting this up!
what happens if you click the stuck thing? does it give you all the answers or just the one you're over?
Is "a deer being sick under a sign" not a well known phrase or saying? Maybe I'm just spelling it worng..

Hang in there - it'll come to you.
Hang in there – it’ll come to you.
It's really not!
Oh.. It was a clue!
This is killing me now. Up to 42, only 20 to go and I’m stumped
That cat in the bag is doing my head in!
Maybe it doesn’t want to be in there?
You shouldn’t help it.
This is like a new form of torture. 27 and that’s been a struggle. Needs clues.
58/62, just four more, can't work out the word pic or the straw
Maybe it doesn’t want to be in there?
You shouldn’t help it.
Thanks you kindly!
Arrghhhh. Ok it’s for charity, it’s for fun. But could they not have given slight leeway for wording/syntax. A missing ‘and’ in a phrase and it’s sorry wrong answer.
What's the picture worth?
So is that a clue or a request for payment! Think I’ve got it but doesn’t like my attempts to word it.
What’s the picture worth?
My eternal gratitude?
Up to 47 now.
Elephants trunk?
3 wise monkeys?
Postcard?
Bloody fish everywhere?
Whatever that deal is with the lampshade?
Those monkeys must be cold....
Aaaaah!
Thanking you.
The leopard is annoying me. Surely there is only one obvious leopard related phrase.
..and don't talk about the elephant
The leopard is a phrasing one. It’s not can’t. It doesn’t
Are the skiers outside of any significance?
Chickens clue?
It’s probably best not to worry about the quantity
Cello with French flag and trainers?
It’s neither a cello, nor a violin. The sweatbands should help
Thank you PP
Nope..none the wiser 🙄
Think of a more traditional instrument
Why would you wear trainers and a sweatband? It’s not a french flag.
Aaaaarrrgh 😭😭😭😁
Too much wine had now!
Ones that I think are clues but I have no idea....
Crisps
Postcard
Copper lamp?
Trout
Elephants trunk
Picture with eyes
Picnic basket
Bottle with straw
Blank to-do list
Skiers
Playing cards
Empty chest
Antelope spitting water
Think of a more traditional instrument
That's misleading. The instrument is still a violin no matter what you call it.
Ah..thank you! They're so obvious when someone practically tells you the answer 😁
Copper lamp?
Is it a lamp or an upturned bath? This isn't a clue, I'm stuck too!

37/62 and all gone quiet on here. The fact I have 1 more than the wife is the only thing keeping me sane. More clue trading needed.
up to 57/62 so far
identified what 3 of the remaining things are likely to be, but not the other 2. the chap on the floor could be (part of) 2 things, so that'd leave one more.
