Ouch - my brain hurts!!!!


Anyway:

The thorn lamb = Lambeth North
Born Crest - I want to say Brent Cross, but there is an 's' missing. Surely not another error????

So - my submission:

"Hot or truncated atom"

Simetra - please accept my apologies for my dreadful slur upon your anagram capabilities!! Perhaps it is time I popped back to Ultralase for a top up dose of laser eye surgery!! (perhaps the surgeon can fix my eyes for me when he fixes my deafness - aging is a terrible thing - there was a time when I could hear and see perfectly, and I had not one wrinkle. Now even my "laughter lines" have wrinkles on them!!)

Mine is merely an anagram - I cold not possibly get cryptic too. With these eyes??!!

smiley - wah
