Gosh @Mi-Amigo 

These questions are very testing indeed.  Love the Lake District maybe someone knows this.  Word slang, a guess I expect. Laa Laa colour!!  I think I know 2 and that's debatable 😂

After lunch there is a very quick get-together with a mince pie! 

(award winning according to Mr. Kipling)

Not holding out much hope for a Thinker this time 🤞

Thank you for your post @TallTrees 

Maybe Mr Kipling mince pies will be the new brain food, or guesses might be lucky.

Well we've enjoyed the mince pies with fresh whipped cream on top.. very nice actually.  @Mi-Amigo 

Serious thoughts on questions 🤔 

Terrible answers maybe due to the added brandy? 😂
