Um, chaps, can you have another go at this one because now *I* can't remember what it means (though I will if someone gets it)
― Mark C, Saturday, 17 November 2007 10:37 (eighteen years ago)
I'm struggling. Murdoch, Maxwell... Loud = f? Drunk = anag?

― James Redd and the Blecchs, Thursday, 3 January 2008 14:24 (eighteen years ago)
I don't get it.
― onimo, Thursday, 3 January 2008 14:26 (eighteen years ago)
you stick needles in things. S = south = a point. Ticker = heart.
― ailsa, Thursday, 3 January 2008 14:29 (eighteen years ago)
(i went with the point/heart thing first, then tried to convince myself that needle and sticker meant the same, hence question mark as I wasn't entirely convinced myself)
― ailsa, Thursday, 3 January 2008 14:31 (eighteen years ago)
I struggle to think of a needle being a sticker. I might have got it if it was 'pin point heart', but probably not.
― onimo, Thursday, 3 January 2008 14:32 (eighteen years ago)
OK, yours is probably a better version of the clue. That usage of sticker is not very common.

Angus. I had to look at a list of scottish names. "G" for game? I don't really hold with arbitrary initialisms. And I get the void, but what about null?
