Sunday's cryptic puzzle

PM of NZ said...

cherubs, leaking like sieve, looking for a lynching

Well, Pm, you're leading the bunch, there not being one, but truth to tell, unless you are an insider, or all-knowing, this one's impossible. I want, very much to bust open a story here, but discretion has the better of me and I've stayed my tapping fingers. However, tomorrow might be different. It's not a matter of any import, though I stand to get stropped-up if I mis-step :-)

PM of NZ said...

There appear to be a number of rumours floating around, none of which the usual rumour-mongers, including yourself, have seen fit to break. Fear of defamation?

And you say 'not just one' being involved.

I'm sure it'll be a salacious read when it hits the streets. We sure could do with livening up this election campaign. Bar the newly formed CP, there is nothing but the same tired messages on offer from both sides.

Suz said...

David and Goliath situation, leaked information, resulting in shit-fight at the OK Corral (or some pissed-off farmers)?

robertguyton said...

Pm - nah, mine's a minor, localized issue and no scandal - I don't deal in dirt :-)
Suz - 2 out of 3 ain't bad! There's been no leak and the middle clue is a noun, fwiw.

PM of NZ said...

Oh, it's only over the fetid swamp on your patch in which you have an obsessive interest. Some news on water that as a serving trougher you've heard but can't divulge and the vocal opposition with non-existent propery rights under the RMA will be none-too-pleased to hear it.

As you said, minor.

robertguyton said...

Nope, PM.
Gout playing up again?

Suz said...

A medieval shield or one of Maddonna's bra cups? Neither suggestion I fear will earn me a gold star. Damn.

robertguyton said...

Two gold stars, Suz, for those evocative suggestions.

N R B the best said...

too easy.... David Rose will be attacked by local farmers...

robertguyton said...

Well, it just could be, N R B the best...

Mort said...

some moron with a clipboard, who perceives him/herself as an enlightened thinker, makes a stupid decision which results in the people getting rumbustious... quell surprise

robertguyton said...

There's been a stupid decision? Tell us more, Mort, and we'll string up that moron and snap his clipboard into two! 'Cause that's how we do it!
