Cryptic clues = station name

[DaleCooper]

Sorry....turned out to be a couple of days!

Young Geordie stays put.

Sorry don't know where to start. A young Geordie might be a "bairn" if that's the way to go?

Neither do I.

Hint: The Geordie part refers to the geographical area in which the station is situated....while the rest is a slightly cryptic anagram plus an old-fashioned alternative way of saying "stays put".

Afraid not....still a smidgin away from the true location!

 

[D6130]

We seem to have hit the buffers with this one!
Before I throw in the towel and give the answer, I'll try an alternative clue:

Somewhere to sit on a modern automatic French metro system?

That's the one!

Re. the original clue:

Geordie gives a clue to the geographical area. The rest is an anagram of:

lad = Young

and

"leaves not" = stays put.

Your turn for a trip to Ashington.

The letters of an anagram should be in the clue and there ought to be an anagram indicator e.g. novel, badly, drunk, different, worked, ugly etc.

Next clue:

In the bookies I backed Shergar for the next race but despite its name the racecourse is 90 miles from here.

No, that's not it.

[neilmc]

Just beat me to it - but never heard of Garforth racecourse?

 

[DaleCooper]

Correct, your turn...

Sorry....bit of a busy week and it slipped my mind. I'll try and think of something before the end of the evening.

Well, that didn't happen. Do we wait another week or is it open floor?

I did say that I would try to think of something else yesterday evening but, unfortunately - as often happens - life got in the way. So, to keep things moving, I'll declare 'open floor'.

OK here's one I've been storing up:

Shortened Christian holiday precedes a celestial shake-up

Dale is correct again. Your turn.

Thank you.

Next clue:

Did Norman eat Dolly Mixtures here?

 

[Radley]

Dollis Hill?

 

[DaleCooper]

Dollis Hill?

No, not the home of Neasden FC's arch rivals.

 

[neilmc]

Manea?

 

[DaleCooper]

Manea?

At first I couldn't imagine how you got that but then I spotted "Norman eat" which was unintentional. Good try but unfortunately incorrect.

Hint: "Mixtures" is the key.

 

[DaleCooper]

Another hint: It's in London
