It's our church quiz. All questions or answers have a connection with TIME.
Dh, my dad and myself are really stuck with the last 3 or 4!!

  1. Commuted on the 8.10 train - 2 words with letters M.B.

  2. Doesn't grow at 60mph - 4 words M.a.M.V

  3. Inserting deadline in contract - 5 words M.T.o.t.E (this could be Making Time of the Essence)?

  4. No encryptographer needed - 3 words T.C.C

any ideas?

  1. Mr Benn
BellaBear · 12/01/2008 12:42
  1. Me and my something?
AnnakeyRules · 12/01/2008 12:52
  1. something Crystal Clear? (don't know what this has to do with time, though )
AnnakeyRules · 12/01/2008 12:53

or 2) something like Moving at Maximum Velocity? (again, does that have anything to do with time?!)

bossybritches · 12/01/2008 12:54
  1. Mile A Minute Vine ??

  1. Times Cryptic Crossword. Or Times Concise Crossword??? The second one makes more sense, maybe.

  1. Mile a Minute Vine?

bossybritches · 12/01/2008 12:55

yes 3) Make time of the essence I would think

bossybritches · 12/01/2008 12:57

Yep Times Cryptic crossword Pooka!!

paddingtonbear1 · 12/01/2008 13:14

this is great guys thanks a lot!
I forgot a couple:

Sale banned in America during WW2- letters A.C
I thought it was cars,but can't make it fit with the letters! Unless the q is wrong.

Happens after one - only one word beg with C.

Alarm CLocks?

Chimes?

Tigerschick · 12/01/2008 14:29

Can only agree with 'Mile a Minute Vine' and Make Time of the Essence.

Mercy · 12/01/2008 14:31

All Clear??

How many letters?

Tigerschick · 12/01/2008 14:38

Is it a crossword?
If so, how many letters?
Do you have any other letters in them?
Just wondering because of your "thought it was cars,but can't make it fit with the letters! Unless the q is wrong." comment.

paddingtonbear1 · 12/01/2008 21:20

Sorry to confuse!
All questions are done now, except those last 2-

Sale banned in America during WW2 - answer is 2 words, 1st begins A, 2nd begins C.
I googled and found the sale of cars was banned for a while during WW2, but then what's the A?
Automobile?

The other question, 'Comes after one', has a one word answer beginning with C. My dh put Cuckoo! But I don't think it's that.

Have been thinking all day but could only come up with Chime or Catalyst (?) for the 'C' one

Feenie · 12/01/2008 21:22

chaser? As in whiskey chaser after a pint?

paddingtonbear1 · 12/01/2008 21:35

my dh has just watched Mr Benn on Nick Jnr! (In the interests of the quiz of course...) But there was no mention of him going on a train - BellaBear are you sure?

I liked the Mile a Minute Vine, would never have found that! My dad had never heard of it either! There were 100 questions in this quiz. dh was a bit peeved that I was better at googling than him, and got more answers that way.. and MN of course

OP posts:
BellaBear · 13/01/2008 10:36

paddington - no, but my DH is, said it as soon as he saw the questions!

AnnakeyRules · 13/01/2008 12:20

it must be 'chime' for the comes after one- when Big Ben strikes one o'clock you get 1 chime

thisisRialifebaby · 13/01/2008 20:00

I spent a lot of last night awake trying to work out the "comes after one".

Didn't get it though

Does anyone know if there's a website where you can get these quizzes. We love them!

keeptakingthetablets · 13/01/2008 20:03

Are you in or near Edinburgh?

Happen after one could be cannon?

paddingtonbear1 · 13/01/2008 22:42

No we're near Manchester!
Think I will put chime, that seems to be the general consensus!
thanks all for the help. didn't mean to keep anyone awake!
