Sweet Sounds [BB328]

untitled Treat this week’s mock-equations as so many dessert suggestions for your next dinner party – in sound at least. If Arabic ruler + rent = SHAH-LET (or the cake, CHARLOTTE), or average score + comic Tina = PARFAIT, then can you scoff the rest?

  1. Magi gift + called
  2. Attempt + sated
  3. Muck + steeper
  4. Watch + holler
  5. Scatter + boring
  6. Spotted + horse
  7. Drain + support + Dame Kramer
  8. Level + wrong + litigate

SOLUTION NEXT WEEK
BB327 SOLUTION: Tom White, Thunderstruck, Caterpillar Wish, Black Balloon, Tender Hook, Boytown, Bra Boys, Wolf Creek, Snowtown

Scrap 11, not a homophone, just a cryptic def, and two words at that. Not easy to come up with one word English language desserts and DA's gobbled the foreign ones.

Cockney place + bingle?

Yes to 10 Sam.

No, Sam's 12 is B.
Don't know No Name's 12, but don't think it's the same rubbish as mine.
