[coughdrop]

This is a local quiz & I have hopefully found 47 of the 50 answer but these last 3 have got me stumped...any help will be appreciated..
a) TURN ON FIRST AVENUE (5)
b) IT'S A NEAR THING BUT NOT HARD (9)
c) A PUPIL IS FOUND IN ONE (9)

Thanks..

B Argentina - anagram of a near thing minus h(ard)

[coughdrop]

Brilliant ! Thanks

A Spain? Spin - turn + a(venue)

[Fibonacci]

1 Spain ( spin + a-venue) ?

[scorpiojo]

C Australia - Austria around a L(earner)

[coughdrop]

I will ponder on Spain...but Austria/Australia are answers already found in the quiz.. thank you both

[scorpiojo]

What clue gives you Australia?

[fiction-factory]

Australia certainly looks right for c so it would be interesting to see the other clue that might have the same answer

[coughdrop]

1) FOUND IN THE USA - AT AIR DISPLAY (7) hence AUSTRIA
50) CAME FIRST & LED OFF (10) hence AUSTRALIA

[fiction-factory]

Is 50 9 or 10 letters?

[coughdrop]

Sorry ..Missed out a word on 50) ..LED RIGHT OFF...

[coughdrop]

OMG...you are more observant than I am...now I cannot count either so back to the drawing board on that one as well..

[scorpiojo]

Austria is ok. In my answer, I was just showing you that a L (a pupil) is found in one (country - Austria)

[scorpiojo]

Wonderland - won + and led r(ight)

[coughdrop]

Wonderland sounds great to me...

[scorpiojo]

:o)))

I think Australia is a great answer & having asked for help with 3 answers I have been given 4 !! Thank you so much for your help ...
