Clue If "A derbyshire man's call-girl maybe" gives you Bakewell Tart, then ....
17:20 Sat 17th Dec 2011
I have already posted this question with no success. Also it's been posted on the Crossword Puzzle solver - no success. We are all desperate for this answer!
Like everyone I am struggling with this clue. I have Roquefort, Roulettes and Rocambole as possible answers. I'm trying to apply laterial thinking to this problem, are you aware:-
berlusconi's is a particular type of shoes, very very high heeled, used by people suffering from dwarfism (or by people suffering from inferiority complex) in order to look higher
His most famous young friend was a belly dancer called Karima El Mahroug. If that's any help
Clue If "A derbyshire man's call-girl maybe" gives you Bakewell Tart, then ....
I should add that I found this a great quiz for a great cause..

(I must admit I didn't get the Berulsconi clue myself - my son in law gave me the answer)
Thanks for your help Lashbo but I still can't get the answer!!! I thought of "tart" or "torte" ( in fact over the last three weeks I've thought of everything) and looked at all the Italian dishes in sight. I just gotter know but, to be fair, if you don't give us the answer, you will probably win cos no one else seems to know!!!
P.S. If you tell us and I win, you can gladly have the champagne. K x
I used Bakewell as a clue because it is a placename, KUSTARD.
OK Lasbo. I'm sure I know what your answer is and it fits perfectly but I disregarded it a couple of weeks since because surely its 5,4 and NOT 9 letters. Anyway, I have now emailed the quiz setter about this so WATCH THIS SPACE.
The correct answer is all one word folks.
Thanks Mamya. I just got the email back from Richard. He is so efficient and as you say it is one 9 letter word so, sorry, Lasbo, the Roman tart has just been fed to the birds!!! Anyway, happy Xmas to you both.
oooh read what you just wrote there
part of it - sorry
A quick update on The Winter Quiz - Although we are well short of the £1000 target at the moment, I expect to collect around £400 from all the local businesses which are selling copies, so the £1000 is still in my sights..

Thanks, as always, to all who have supported so far - please help me get to the £1000 by recommending the quiz on Facebook, Twitter, & Linkedin.
Oh never thought of Linkedin, will do.
Done!!
I'm really struggling with this quiz, enjoying it though.
Gotta ask Mamya. What did I say? Rushing cos had visitors coming but just read wot u wrote (as Ernie Wise used to say) and still don't understand (mind you, I've had a glass or two now) so PLEASE enlighten me. Wasn't it a good quiz? I'm looking forward to the next one. K x
Your guess as quoted above has 5 letters correct, sorry to be obtuse but I am competitive as you know, had a glass or two myself xxx
-- answer removed --
Understand all now Mamya. Hadn't a clue of the answer till your last reply but now all is revealed!!!!!
