frugalfred - thank you. I felt mosquito must be an answer but couldn't make it fit!
28 maybug; County May(o) + bug = annoy
Question Author
Hi frugalfred - Just been trying to work that one out myself and thought it might be bedbug. What do you think?
"bedbug" looks OK - short for Bedfordshire. I think maybug is either hyphenated or 2 words.
24 dragonfly - scrap = rag; put on = don; shift = fly.
Question Author
Thank you frugalfred for dragonfly.
