Ok new Q for anyone who is actually up when I am. I hope you know it is nearly 9.am here and if someone doesn't come out and play I will have to go out and enjoy the day with outdoor pursuits.

Q...

What are the P.I.I.G.S.? Extra points for naming each of them.

Eep, do I?

I looked it up. Yes, I do. Does someone else want to go for the last one?

CEC = Current Economic Crisis. I gather other people live in countries where one doesn't hear this every day on the news...

I haven't got a question. (I already know everything.)

Anyone else wish to give us a try?

Okay, since the scones are made and mostly eaten. A cryptic clue:

Diminutive Sarah, a male redback for fiery reptile. 10 letters.

Too cryptic?

Break the clue into bits, and see what you get.

(I removed an excess word to de-cryptify it a smidgen.)

Hummm. Down under, poisonous spiders, lots of birds...

Diminutive Sarah, so Sally? Or precious.. princess? Fiery reptile... dragon? (are they reptiles?) Komodo dragon, so dragon again?

Well, that went nowhere fast.

More clues, please?

Dreams is on the right track with the first part of the clue (diminutive Sarah).
