I'm not good with cryptics, so I'm happy for anyone to take this from me (assuming it's right)...

 

[plymothian]

and seeing as it looks like i made that one too hard, maybe someone else should have a go

Here's one from me if no-one objects: may not last but I will try it anyway.

Tease two thirds of a heavy weight.

This is Taunton. I thought it looked familiar - the clue was "carry on teasing" last time.

Ribald ring tone holds the answer

Didn't realise Taunton had been done before as I didn't set it. However I couldn't think of a clue for some of the stations that I ran through in my head. Oh well...

[Seacook]

Aldrington

Correct, of course. I didn't think it would take long to spot.

Stop and blow

The obvious Dickens character would seem to be Miss Havisham, but I can't find a station that is a homophone (nearest was Faversham). I'm now trying to find another angle.

 

[Welshman]

Don't look any further - "Faversham" sounds near enough to "Havisham" to me!

Well done!

I'm sorry. I missed this post. I do not have another clue prepared, so the floor is open.

 

[Welshman]

OK - anyone want a try at this?:-

Is there a queue for baskets here?

Clue:-

Think of the name for the name for the centre of the base of the basket from where the weaving is started.

 

[Meridian richard]

Slaithwaite

 

[Welshman]

Yes!

Very well done.

 

[Meridian richard]

A tigers aim

 

[Welshman]

My mind keeps going back to William Blake ["Tiger, tiger, burning bright in the forests of the night"] which I remember from my school-days!

So, Blakedown or Blake St [although I'm not sure where the "aim" comes in]

 

[Meridian richard]

Nope, it's much more topical than that!

 

[Mvann]

Wood green.

 

[Meridian richard]

No, but I like your thinking!

 

[plymothian]

Golf Street?

 

[Meridian richard]

Correct sport wrong answer

I suppose in the Masters Tournament, he was aiming to be up with the Winnersh.

 

[Meridian richard]

No. To be the winner(ish) he will need to be under it
