A different kind of Puzzle

1) Baseline
2) Back door
3) An inside job
4) Uphill struggle
5) Upset tummy

I'll have to think about the last three a bit longer....

Oh, just got the last one: Anyone for tennis.

Well, that was a waste of time, wasn't it? I thought we were supposed to keep solutions to ourselves so as not to spoil it for others?

Anyone got number 6? I think I know 7.

I've got 6 now.

Here's one I like.

bathsheba playing by herself
Reminds me of when my grandson was little and always called the answer out in class ???

Bathsheba is very good at solving these puzzles quickly! Well done!

Sorry, I should have just said 'yes', shouldn't I

Please find some more like this Granny23 and I promise I'll shut up!

When will we get the answers? I'm stuck on 07
Any hints?

Missedout Love the name by the way. Bathsheeba was correct with the first 5.

No. 6 is - Back to square 1
No. 7 is - Goodnight or alternatively "Yes, Prime Minister"
No 8 is - Anyone for Tennis

I thought 7 was Alright on the Night!

Mine was High IQ.

pittcity yours is a better answer than I was given.

Thanks for the answer to your one - I didn't get it.

Yes I though 7 could be 'politically correct'. I thought about all the other examples given too but didn't consider as PM being night, just anytime after midday.

Well, these dingbats gave the little grey cells a work out, and together with Marydoll's Mathematical Extravaganza, I've been exercising my brain - a lot more than my body l’m sad to say. Thank you.

pittcity is yours eyeliner
If not please give a clue its driving me crazy

Eyeliner is a great alternative May7.

Me too. Are we bored or just highly tuned human specimens bathsheba
?

Can I make a suggestion.? When someone posts a puzzle, can we PM the OP with an answer and then the OP lets us know who was the first to get the answers correct, and of course let us have the answers , and there should be a time limit, say , 24 hours from the OP - hopefully that will work.

I’ve got most. Very good grany23 look forward to checking my answers when you post them. We could just wait till 9.00 to see if we are right. ?

I don't really care whether I was first to get them right or not . And think about the poor OP being overloaded with answers that she then has to read through and check and reply to.
