Argh, I've number 9 twice and missed out 11.

Joefish got the second 9.

So just 3, 6, the first 9 and 12 to get.

Kind of, but not entirely.

It's Mylar roll.

That's the hardest one, maybe not fair using an American term. My hope was that the second and third pics would be enough.

Yes!

Sounds like "Mylar" + "Di" + "Catch". Crazy game, crazy caption.

Just 12 to go.

It's a lathe.

I don't know if this one is possible for a non native speaker, because of the first picture (sorry, I'll bear that in mind next time).

It's taken me all day to realise that it's a Welsh flag printed across his screwed-up face so perhaps he's meant to be dressed as a daffodil, despite a daffodil looking nothing like the head-dress he's wearing. The picture is a bit too small to figure all that out. But even then I don't see how anything to do with the Welsh or their football or rugby supporters or daffodils goes with a lathe, turning, milling, knurling, sharpening or tooling. I think you've properly lost it.

Well, never heard of the last two, and he'd be a 'Taff' not 'Taffy'.

Thaaankyou.

They're worth a look for an insight into the drug addled minds of the authors at least (Taffy's loader especially, Myla's game).

Ta for playing all, same time next week (or drop me a PM if you want to do a Friday Quiz™ instead).
