Got this one in my mailbox today: 90 bands[^]
probably an older "go around". I found 30-35 myself, but I can't find the solution list to this thing.
(also because some things might be dubious  )
Does anyone have it?
(How many did you find?)

Strange, but HERE[^] it says 75 bands...

And now I'm a real spoilsport, but the answer seems to be HERE[^] - or at least, there is a link to the answers... And there seems to be only 70 after all...
Guess my Google Fu is better than yours...

Does "virgin" refer to that Justin kid?

Although I think Tom got it.
The answer is SABERTOOTH SALMON

Darn! I got the first bit "Saber" and took a punt on the lines of Sabertooth Tiger but no way could I make Tiger stretch to six letters unless I Pooh-ed it to make TIGGER but that was miles off. I didn't see the "tooth" bit anyway, so I left it as "saber" and moved on to some work instead.

But he never answered how could he be the one to got it? You mean if he where here he would have answered it?

Tom merely has to vote. By not posting the solution he's giving the rest of us an opportunity. You'll also find he sometimes responds with another clue for the same answer; his way of confirming he already knows the solution. The second clue can help see it from a different angle. Neither the original clue or his alternative seldom helps me, however.

That doesn't mean he didn't email DD privately...

Why not?
Because he didn't share it with everybody else and spoil their fun?
Why do you think I don't answer them very often any more? I was getting complaints!

That's no maybe. You, Tom, and the others were too quick posting solutions. Since you all backed off and sat on the fence, chewing cheroots, and spittin' on the dirt by our boots I was able to solve one, and only one, answer and solution. That was my Horace Rumpole moment, solving the Penge Bungalow Murder.

That's why I stopped, in a way. Unfair to monopolise something, so I just try to ensure that DD can't win two days in a row....:EvilLaughSmiley:
