Yes, me again with this re -re posting! I need to post this quiz off tomorrow
All answers are Scottish places - NB some of the answers have been VERY small villages, so may not be known to lots of you!
11 In a bad run of form
22 The flowers on the roof rest tumbled near this building
29 I wish this vehicle would start
22 could be Rosemarkie and Fortrose, if it is both an anagram of "roof" and "rest" and "Rose" with " markie" as it sounds like "marquee" - the " building" bit!!! Or am I clutching at straws?!

22. I'd go with Fortrose. As you say it's an anagram of roof + rest. Flowers = rose and building = fort.
11. Just a guess....Durno? (ba)D RUN (anagrammed) + Of...

IMHO I don't think the clues are very good.
29. There's a small village called Cargo just north of Carlisle but it seems to be in England

Thanks jmr27! Yes, I agree with you the clues are rubbish, not everyone can write cryptic clues and these aren't good!!! Nonetheless I do want to finish it! Glutton for punishment! And the £10 prize will help with the biscuit fund in the office!

Could 29 be LONGFORGAN?
29 BertieButton, been racking my brains? I've come up with two suggestions but they really are iffy. Alford in Aberdeenshire and Carbost in Isle of Skye.

I agree , BertieButton. It would be interesting to find out the answers when you get the results. Good luck.
