COLOURS STILL NEEDED - LOCAL QUIZ

[maggiebee]

The answers to these clues are colours. Had help already which is much appreciated, but still two to go.

1. quite a tasty little thing (5)
2. did she recommend some divine holiday? sounds like it. (7)

[TheWinner]

I have two answers to offer as suggestions (not answers) for consideration for you and my other colleagues out there on A/B.
1. Peach
2. Nankeen (which although is a material, it is also a colour).

Hi, TheWinner, sorry for delay.nankeen sounds good but I'm still trying to work out "divine holiday". I've been mulling over this clue but must admit I'm stumped.(hate to admit defeat!)

[TheWinner]

me too, clutching at straws I think they call it. Also wondered if D and H completed the clue. Thought it might end son, (sounds like sun), but could only come up with crimson, could devine be cri? I couldn't make it work.

1) How about....Olive.

[Bummle]

what about magenta - isn't there a presenter called Magenta Divine? Not sure what it has to do with holiday, though.

Magenta Devine hosted The Rough Guide

She presented a youth travel programme called rough guide, so maybe that's the holiday connection.

[TheWinner]

That sounds like a really good answer to me. Never heard of her, but well done!.

[quinie]

Brilliant answer. Can stop racking my brain now. Must admit I've never heard of her.

[TheWinner]

Goodnight quinie, (and all) I have a busy day (again) tomorrow.

Thanks for all your help folks. Nice to know there are brainy people out there!
