  • Something for the Weekend No 112 - the answer

    Hello teaser fans; I hope your Bank Holiday Sunday has been brighter than mine... still if it hasn't, why haven't you been here adding guesses to this week's Something for the Weekend :>

    Yesterday morning I showed you this
    Something for the Weekend No 112
    and asked you to identify it.

    We had some great guesses this week... tea-strainer, tiger bread, Usky's waistcoat, wasp's nest, a leopard's left ball, Rod Stewart's leopard-print tights, honeycomb, waffle... great guesses, but wrong each and every one. :yes:

    Several of you did grab the right answer though... and here it is:
    Something for the Weekend No 112
    Yep they're fungi... :yes:

    First past the post was Munzly, but close on his heels were Rob Lavender, BlogFrog and GardenGirl... congratulations to you all.

    You know the routine to collect your prize Mr Hermit, so I shan't bother explaining. ;)

    Thanks for taking part everyone and don't forget to drop in for the next Little Something for the Weekend, which will be in two week's time. :wave:

  • Something for the Weekend No 112

    Good morning teaser fans and apologies for being somewhat tardy with this week's Little Something for the Weekend, but here I am at last. :yes:

    I thought last week's teaser would be snapped up in minutes flat, or sooner, but not so... :no: ...so this week I'm making no prediction about difficulty level! :))

    With no further ado, I am your Little Something for the Weekend
    Something for the Weekend No 112
    but what am I?

    As usual feel free to enter as many guesses as you like; please restrict your entries to one guess per comment. :yes:

    The winner's details/correct answer will posted tomorrow evening... :)

    Have fun folks and happy guessing! :wave:

  • Something for the Weekend No 111 - the answer

    Good afternoon everyone, here I am with the answer details to my Little Something for the Weekend No 111 :D

    I was so sure this teaser would be snapped up in the first few minutes... but since no-one has guessed it, that just goes to show what I know I suppose... :roll:

    Yesterday morning I posted this for you to identify...
    Something for the Weekend No 111
    I really expected the answer to fly out of the screen at me... so many of you have guessed at various sea-life things just recently... and, well...

    Oh well, there's no point in prolonging this now is there? :no:

    Here it is...
    Something for the Weekend No 111
    ...a piece of coral I found washed up on a beach, from the Family Trachyphylliidae (I think).

    So Old Usky has fooled you all again... and without actually trying this time! :))

    I promise I'll make my next teaser even easier... :yes: ...so make sure you call in next Saturday for another Little Something for the Weekend! :wave:

  • Something for the Weekend No 111

    Good morning teaser fans... another week, another game and this week I'm presenting you with a much easier task :yes:

    I can't help feeling this one will go very quickly, so here's a special welcome to you early birds :wave:

    I am your Little Something for the Weekend
    Something for the Weekend No 111
    but what am I?

    As usual feel free to enter as many guesses as you like; please restrict your entries to one guess per comment. :yes:

    The winner's details/correct answer will posted tomorrow evening... :)

    Have fun folks and happy guessing! :wave:

  • Something for the Weekend No 110 - the answer

    Good afternoon Teaser Fans... :wave:

    Just to remind you, Usky is on a hat-trick this week... but the question is, did he succeed in his quest to fool you folks three weeks in a row? ;)

    Yesterday morning I asked you to identify my latest Little Something for the Weekend
    Something for the Weekend No 110

    Let me tell you now, it's no kind of leg... bee, cat, deer, elephant or aardvark! :no:

    So later in the day I offered you a second clue...
    Something for the Weekend No 110

    I wondered whether the furriness would point a few more of you down the 'moth' route...

    You also had a non visual clue, in the title of April Wine's song... Wings of Love

    Then this afternoon I added a final visual clue...
    Something for the Weekend No 110

    You needed to imagine the first visual and third visual clues joined together :yes:

    Oh well... I could see it and hoped you could too :D

    Here they are... in all their 'morning glory'... :))
    Something for the Weekend No 110
    A couple, as in PAIR, of moths doing the do... :))

    Oh, oh, oh... am I a sneaky Old Usky or what? :>

    So there we are then... no completely correct answer... I claim my hat-trick! :))

    I'm going to give special mentions to LaSpice, WyrdSeeker, Happy28 and Kendersrule for making mention of the 'moth' thing... just a shame none of you joined the dots to complete the puzzle, although I'll grant you it was particularly obscure this week. :>>

    Tunein next week for another brand new, all exciting Little Something for the Weekend :wave:

    I hope you've got your thinking caps on and we get some really original entries this week.... ;)

  • Something for the Weekend No 109 - the answer

    Good evening teasers... I think it's time I put this week's Little Something for the Weekend to bed... :yes: ...especially since I seem to have stuffed you lot for the second week in a row! :>>

    Yesterday morning I asked you to identify this little fellow...
    Something for the Weekend No 109
    Well it seems most of agreed it was organic, but believe me it isn't an anemone, or a caterpillar, or some left-over sprouting vegetables... :no:

    It's all very simple really... and you'll find thousands of them on certain specific trees at this time of year... and what's more they're growing into something quite delightful! ;)
    Something for the Weekend No 109
    There look... isn't that easy? It's a sweet chestnut :yes:
