I've just learnt that a particular drinking vessel is all one word.

Think you are making too much fuss about this proverb.

I've put 'Y' or clarifications next to anything that I have got, so you know that this definitely has an answer to be guessed. ? next to anything that I haven't, because until you get them you don't know whether they are definitely a clue. I'm still short 8.

Trophy does not have a globe in it. Might be a small fruit instead.

sausages in the fire - where did the sausages start?

What do you use to play a cello or a violin?

Where did the eggs fall from?

 

[JJ McClure]

32 and stuck.
I'm not sure that 'like a dutch violin wearing trainers' or 'always keep your plum in a trophy' are phrases I've ever used?

 

[Stato]

Are you mad?

Quite the reverse I think.

I've now got six to go and am reaching the point of lunacy.

Thanks to Dick Swiveller for the tip on the sock. It also gave me inspiration for the water one linked to the other deer's head.

 

[worthingseagull]

deer spitting water
painting with eyes on it
silvery fish/copper lamp thing
trophy with a plum in
art above fire with city type words on it

You might get called one of these if you win a trophy for being stupid.

 

[Farehamseagull]

Ok, what's the burying the head in the sand one?! I've tried every combination of it I can think of and can't find the right one!
