Hiya folks,
Some of you may have seen one of these quizzes (or indeed this one) before but I thought it would be a good idea to share it with those who havent (for the season that's in it). Please don't Google the answers as they ain't too difficult (and it spoils all the fun). Can anyone get all the answers? 
Edit: Just to clarify, they are all cryptic clues to the names of music groups or artists. 1 YEAR QUARTERS 2 SILHOUETTES 3 NOOKIE GUNS 4 DARK SUNDAY 5 WARM GALAXY 6 DOGGY BARK 7 NUN TOBOGGAN 8 UNEMPLOYMENT CARD 9 MSc.
