My wife has brought home a charity quiz sheet from work and we are stuck on three items, either that or my brain has just given up thinking straight after completing 97 others...

Sayings: i.e. Once bitten twice shy ... etc

L--- b--- r---- - h---- p-- (Like bees round a honey pot - Chocs)

Items in a Kitchen:

b------ b----- (biscuit barrel - barry)
L--------- (liquidiser - bloggie)

All done now.

Thank you.

Well done chocs. I am an avid crossword buff and have a hand held anagram and phrase solver (I know it's cheating) but I was baffled by this one. L--- b--- r---- - h---- p---

I see now that what I thought was 5 letters after the R is in fact 4 + 1
