What was Jack Russell's occupation, and what is strange about the dog?

[Jurek]

75. After some srsly brane-warping studying of the TfL list of stations.

Now to get on with something productive.  Such as sleep.

It has that effect, doesn't it?

I will give all answers in exchange for carbon fibre, titanium or, at worst (and I'm being really cheap here) cash.
God, I feel so dirty.

Wrong Jack Russell. The one after whom the dog was named. http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Jack_Russell_Terrier refers (the Jack is a nickname)

An hour was lost last night after Butterfly clicked on the link just as we were going to switch off & go to bed.

I suspect more brain-wrangling will happen tonight.

I think I've done reasonably well for someone who has been to London a total of about 5 times, but I'm stumped now on these:

The glue in the road

The bride on the hill

The footballer


Hints gratefully received.

[clarion]

It's not about the bride, but what she's doing.

[Eccentrica Gallumbits]

I only got the bride on the hill when I started thinking about London stations I've heard of, which included running through the Monopoly squares in my head.

Bobb and I have now got all of them except the bale of hay on the hill. I did wonder if it was ox-food circus, but it's not.

[Gus]

Got to 50, but it's hard work for a foreigner to guess them, even with the spoilers.

[Cudzoziemiec]

The bale of hay is a candidate for the "I didn't know it was pronounced like this" thread.

I got 65 a couple of days ago, then went to sleep but of course I hadn't saved it. Still can't get the last ten.

[Jasmine]

It's not about the bride, but what she's doing.

It's also easier if you don't think she's standing next to a hatstand

I have now got it!!!

Some of them are a bit shit to be honest...

[Kim]

That one especially.   

[David Martin]

I thought that one was fairly straightforward as that is how I have always pronounced it.

What does glue do (another word for stick)? And what is the footballer doing with what part of his body?

[Tim Hall]

it didn't help that the splodge of glue looked like a rasher of
bacon though. 62 done.

[Jurek]

Yep. That green bacon kept me off the streets for a while.

[Pippa]

With the glue one I couldn't get beyond thinking it was Crappy Rub Sniff (or more accurately Krapy Rub Snif, which is Finsbury Park backwards). OK I knew it wasn't right but it was like the equivalent of an ear worm every time I tried to think about it....

Heh. I was working at Krapy Rub Snif last night. It will always be that now. And wet. And cold.

The lady in the Little Black Dress has a large wig. And a finger in her ear. But I can't find Earwig St. Perhaps itgot swallowed up when they did the Jubilee Line extension.

[Cudzoziemiec]

I got the glue one fairly easily. Still haven't a clue about the footballer. Different minds work in different ways I guess, plus you're more likely to get ones which refer to stations  whose names you're familiar with.

[Kim]

I wasted ages with the footballer on the incorrect assumption that the clue required some obvious-to-people-who-know-anything-about-football factoid, probably related to the colour of his kit.

I've just found that if you dump all the cookies from your computer, you can play the game again

I misread that!  You don't want to know what's on my keyboard.

[David Martin]

The lady in the Little Black Dress has a large wig.

's lunnon slang, innit. Hardly fair on those without an upbringing outside of the sound of Bow Bells - it will have been far over their heads..

[Jurek]

The lady in the Little Black Dress has a large wig.

Concentrate your attention on the areas which respond with the "Double click to guess" prompt.
The lady in the black dress is (mostly) not one of them.
