Clue below for those wanting to know

Wax village isn't wax. Its another substance associated with bees. And a bigger settlement than a village.

25 so far, but it's hard going!

Thanks got it, these are quite terrible!

BobBobBobbing · 01/02/2026 09:35

26 now thanks to Saisong!

Once I figured out one star one, the other was obvious. Not got the ant one yet.

BobBobBobbing · 01/02/2026 09:39

Oh now I get the ant one. Groan!

21 now. I had a flash of inspiration about one of the football clues when I woke up.

Which football one did you get? I've only got the no 10 player, still looking for the game in the field and the strawberry guy

EleanorReally · 01/02/2026 09:41

i have 4

Ahhh thank you! I didn’t know that place even had a station.

Oh god that ant one was so bad. Like the car one is also a terrible pun. The star one too, though you have to admire the vision!

Admire the vision! Yep.

Interesting.
I only got one. Even looking at the answers I can only understand a handful.

Daytimenighttime · 01/02/2026 10:40

Gosh I'm impressed some of you have done so well.

I got 12 and my DS, who I sent the link to , got 19 . We've now combined our answers and got a couple more and we are on 23.

Considering he is a railway enthusiast, good at geography and works in transport planning my DS is extremely miffed that he isn't doing better!

In mitigation it does seem quite England orientated and we are in Scotland. That's our excuse anyway!

Keeping trying with grim determination

BobBobBobbing · 01/02/2026 10:45

Up to 32. A lot of guessing going on now!

Smidge001 · 01/02/2026 11:06

BreadstickBurglar · 01/02/2026 09:27

Oh no smidge! Any chance of a clue on the wax town?

I couldn't even work out that one with a list of answers in front of me!! (They just list the answers rather than having the picture next to each of them). Let me have another look and try harder to work it out...

Smidge001 · 01/02/2026 11:11

Ok i think i realise now why i couldn't get that one. My clue for the wax thing is that the place ends in the letters 'ton' (which is where i got confused thinking that that answer must tie up with the anvil weight thing which specifically says ton on it).

Smidge001 · 01/02/2026 11:13

At some point this needs to become a spoiler thread as even with the answers there are a few i could do with discussing to understand how the pun actually works!

Rabbithill · 01/02/2026 11:14

They should have had a plate of egg and ham for Egham!!

Illbefinejustbloodyfine · 01/02/2026 11:17

I dont understand why 2 of my answers dont work. The swimming pool, and the paddling pool, seem obvious places but dont work

I have 5....

Those are stations where it is the place name plus other words. The swimming pool one is a bit of tougher one if you don't know the stations in that area

Seainasive · 01/02/2026 11:34

thanks that helped!

What the hell is in the child's paddling pool?

I was thinking I haven’t got any Scottish stations! It’s tough, how annoying for DS

Still got the footballers with the strawberry, the field full of bees, the anvil and a few more to get

@BreadstickBurglar How many bees are there?

A type of offal, and a green fruit

Count the number of bees...

zzpled · 01/02/2026 11:50

Paddling pool: I got the name of a city but couldn't see what the green specks were. Have sussed it now, thank you.

Seainasive · 01/02/2026 11:57

Ah yes the green fruit 😃
