Came across these in "work still in progress after an incredibly long time". Apologies if I've already posted them and forgotten to move them into "posted" Solve the two clues and find a pair of words that have an affinity for one another. For example, (acorn) and (run) = nut and bolt. Beware, some of them rate fairly high on the Cue scale of evilness, and some have a Brit slant to them. -1. (charge) and (out of touch) -2. (avoid) and (English seaman) -3. (support) and (out of the medals) -4. (outwit) and (harass) -5. (glitterati) and (excludes) -6. (former governor) and (eyelet) -7. (cut of meat) and (loose coins) -8. (suit) and (rivers) -9. (NATO male) and (NATO female) - think phonetically...-10. (barbecue aid) and (East European)
To waste one second of one's life is a betrayal of one's self. I wonder what's on television...?

Bob, CCb - good ones! Nothing that devious, CCb - just a simple "male and female" (stag and hind etc...)

Here's a wag...hem and haw? This answer has to be from watching The Nanny last night.
Did you ever stop to think and then forget to start again?

We're even then since I don't get the NATO reference. Imagine Fran Drescher saying him and her. Mrs. Cue and I have watched the entire run of The Nanny over the last month or so. I only watched a few episodes when it was originally on TV.

Aha - we don't get The Nanny over here (I think...) I'm sure you've answered questions before on the NATO phonetic ...

Ah...yes indeed. I didn't know that was the term for it.
