Cryptic clues = station name

[Esker-pades]

Aspley Guise?

 

[Jackoref]

Very easy once you realise that "camouflaging" is just an indicator in cryptic clues that the word is just hidden in the clue!

 

[Calthrop]

But, gorbooger if'n Oi can find a station which is an anagram of "Jackoref finds way of"...

Not an anagram, a run through.

 

[Calthrop]

Not Sway, in the New Forest ?!

 

[Calthrop]

Sorry -- last post ambiguously phrased perhaps -- it wasn't a clue. I meant to ask: Jackoref -- is the answer "Sway"?

That's the one!

 

[Calthrop]

Thanks ! So, my go...

Micro-nation loses its abbreviated poorly-isolating facility over the water

 

[Calthrop]

Hint: the "over the water" part is important.

 

[neilmc]

Is it MARINO - the micro-nation being San Marino?

 

[Calthrop]

Marino on the Belfast -- Bangor line, indeed -- "losing" San, short for sanatorium.

'Tis yer man neilmc's floor now...

 

[neilmc]

Hope this is acceptable then:

Place to find an exciting ride perhaps, but you might also discover a base purple bollock ache!

 

[Calthrop]

A year or so ago, we had a clue with "masturbated on" as an anagram of Dumbarton East -- in comparison with which yours above seems quite tame ! I'm having problems working it out, though...

 

[GusB]

Blackpool Pleasure Beach?

Open floor if correct.

 

[neilmc]

GusB has nailed it! I can't resist an anagram which is strangely appropriate to the place!

 

[Calthrop]

Open floor -- I'll have a go.

At start / end of most runs: we hear tribute from uncultured speaker, to durability of episcopal headgear

 

[neilmc]

Not Mitre Bridge is it? That sounds too obvious.

 

[Calthrop]

Indeed (fiendish chortle), nothing to do with mitres.

 

[Calthrop]

Hint: it's on a heritage line.

 

[neilmc]

Bishop's Lydeard maybe but I'm not sure why other than reference to episcopal

 

[Calthrop]

I had in mind, non-BBC-English speaker saying, "Bishop's lid [occasionally, slang term for hat], 'e 'ard" -- bit far-fetched maybe, but this is Cryptic World...

"Yaw flaw midaw"

 

[neilmc]

OK, I think it's mine again ...

Meeting Jon's Cougar North of the Wall ... at very remote points?

 

[Calthrop]

OK, I think it's mine again ...

I said so, above, in "weirdish". Pondering on Jon's Cougar, without success as yet.

 

[neilmc]

Well, it's an anagram. And the Wall is ... well, there's a real wall spanning the UK, of course, from coast to coast.

 

[Calthrop]

Crooj Angus? but now I'm being silly...

 

[GusB]

It's well north of the wall - anagram of Meeting Jon's Cougar

Georgemas Junction

 

[neilmc]

Congratulations to GusB again. "Remote points" also a reference to there being a junction.

 

[Calthrop]

OK, I think it's mine again ...

Meeting Jon's Cougar North of the Wall ... at very remote points?

Brilliant anagram -- which I'd never have figured out ! As I've mentioned, I'm better at setting 'em than getting 'em.

 

[GusB]

Congratulations to GusB again. "Remote points" also a reference to there being a junction.

The "remote points" bit completely passed me by, to be honest!

I'm rather better at solving than setting, so open floor please.

 

[Esker-pades]

In which case:
It's been a bit dry, so I'm going to pop into the garden with the washing up.
