Scrub that last one!

6, not 66, feet in a fathom?

[whurules]

There are 660 feet in a furlong but the clue definitely says 66 ,maybe its been printed wrong

[JJ109]

6 = Moon Landings

[JJ109]

8 = Finger Holes On A Recorder
(there are actully 7 finger holes + 1 for the thumb)

[whurules]

Jj109 thank you so much for for answers

[JJ109]

you're welcome - sorry I can't get the others - but I shall return if nobody else gets them first, when hopefully my thought patterns take a different direction.

18th of may Somaliland independence day?

[JJ109]

A few suggestions for 6 LOAS but I am still trying to think of something better
6 Legs on a Scarab (or sawfly or silverfish) - any insect has 6 legs but there is no obvious one that stands out.
6 Limbs Of A Snowflake (lines?) There are 6 lines of symmetry or 6 arms/branches

Hopefully someone can assist

?6 Lines on a Stave

[JJ109]

Sorry - only 5

[telboy22]

Oops! Scrub that. I think there's only 5

[mallyh]

perhaps the setter has made a mistake and thought a spider has 6 legs?

[whurules]

Mallyh , what a brilliant answer that Somaliland one is , if that's right you deserve the first prize on your own, I'm going to use that one anyway you never know thank you
