Lisa?

Thank you, @finallychangedmyusername - great clues again!

Sorry for the delay: I’ve tried posting several times today, but my phone just wasn’t having any of it! This should be a nice easy one, I think.

This well-heeled lady has excellent connections; but cut off her ear and you’ll make her famously grumpy!

finallychangedmyusername · 29/06/2018 08:01

@FintyTin has it! Imogen was possibly a spelling error (Innogen), actress Imogen Stubbs, "In my opinion" is abbreviated as IMO, possible nickname of Jenny.

Back to you @FintyTin! Grin

FintyTin · 29/06/2018 07:32

Imogen?

LadyGAgain · 29/06/2018 04:46

Una?

finallychangedmyusername · 28/06/2018 23:23

Yay! Sorry for delay, I forgot to check the thread Blush

Don't make any mistakes with this one!
A namesake hurts her toe when playing.
In my opinion her friend makes her feel a bit of an ass.

FintyTin · 28/06/2018 09:26

Ah, well done @finallychangedmyusername!
Great clues, @LadyGAgain, even if they did make my brain hurt Grin!

LadyGAgain · 28/06/2018 07:25

Yes @finallychangedmyusername !

Casper the friendly ghost roams New York.

Casper/Gaspar (and other variants) was reportedly one of the 3 Magi from the East bringing frankincense which smells lovely (not of roses) and Caspar means Treasurer.

Over to you!

finallychangedmyusername · 28/06/2018 07:21

Casper/Caspar/Kasper/Kacper?

LadyGAgain · 28/06/2018 04:54

Ok...
'This friendly fellow' is not of this world

He came from a far away land bearing a special gift.

I hope that's helpful.

MariaMadita · 27/06/2018 21:30

Nicholas?

FintyTin · 27/06/2018 21:13

I knew I was clutching at straws! 😄
Another clue would be lovely, please.

LadyGAgain · 27/06/2018 19:20

Not John. Would another clue help? I hope I haven't duffed this one up Blush

finallychangedmyusername · 27/06/2018 19:17

John?

LadyGAgain · 27/06/2018 18:58

Not Arthur I'm afraid

FintyTin · 27/06/2018 18:22

It's a long shot...Arthur?

LadyGAgain · 27/06/2018 14:34

Sorry not William

trueblueari · 27/06/2018 12:55

William?

LadyGAgain · 27/06/2018 06:24

Thank you!

Ok here goes (husband has once again looked at me blankly so I hope ur makes sense!!)

This friendly fellow can be found roaming around New York. He’s from a far away land and has many variations according to legend. You’d trust him with your finances which should be returned smelling of something good (if not of roses)!

throwcushions · 26/06/2018 21:32

Yes LadyGAgain!

Noble - patrician
Religious - St Patrick
Cake - patty (nickname for Patrick)
Cinemas - forthcoming film about a pug called Patrick
A star - Patrick Star the starfish from Spongebob Squarepants Blush

LadyGAgain · 26/06/2018 20:16

Patrick?

throwcushions · 26/06/2018 19:09

Not Solomon or Bradley. The cake is not delicious unfortunately!

Let me know if another clue is required!

finallychangedmyusername · 26/06/2018 12:03

Just returning to my favourite name game after a hectic few days away Smile.... Bradley?

FintyTin · 26/06/2018 10:41

I'm with you on that one, MariaMadita! Mmm...cakeCake
My DH has yet to solve one. He now gets cross at our "silly game". Grin
