Famous groups

[smouse]

Mainly 60s but some later

River insects
The ratty boatmen
have answers but not sure

The point of living
not got a clue on that one

[JMR27]

2. Motley Crue?

[rogerr]

Last one could be Level 42---42 was the meaning of life etc in Hitchikers guide to the galaxy

[ivaclue]

could river insects be Adam and the ants
(a dam)

[smouse]

I had cutting crew but dont feel either of them quite cover the ratty bit

Dont think its will just be ants but then I have crickets and dont like that either

I had level 42 but not sure that it quite fitted the point of living so removed it

Sorry to be so fussy - lol but I do appreciate the help and the suggestions

Thanks

[fordward]

how about MOODY BLUES for the ratty boatmen

[smouse]

See now that I like
can tell you do Illingworth - lol

[fordward]

i still need 10, 11, 19, 28, 32, 36, 40
clues would be nice?!

[smouse]

With pleasure
Some of the people who are doing this for a the first time seem to just want answers and dont ask why and this and newshoots need work and are great fun so I hope they dont get spoilt

10 a medical device that does that
11 not sure I had crickets and now the suggestion here is Ants

19 use reverse dictionary for a word for prophets then its an anagram of that and arch
28 brand of peas
32 not sure - level 42 suggested
36 two words second one is just a letter about half way through alphabet
40 think radio

hope these help
mainly 60s groups so dont know your age so that may not help at all

[fordward]

im 62

[smouse]

apples have them - lol

[Freda7]

smouse - pardon me for sticking my oar in but I see you are wanting No. 32 of Wyn Markhams - The point of living.
I have Westlife as I thought it fit the clue i.e. Point = West and Living = Life. Just a thought.

[clairehunnie]

28 batchalors

[fordward]

got it thanks smouse

[smouse]

clairehunnie they wanted clues I wasnt being awkward not giving the answers - some people like to try to get them like that

I like westlife think its better than Level 42 and more in keeping with their style of answers - thanks
