The answers are:
GABARDINEETHYL
BLIGHTER – RANDY
Same here. Sigh. I had hoped to be first out of the gate, or at least the first with Blighter Randy. But it’s good answer, 13/2 and plenty of TI along Benny Hill lines.
The OA is a stretch, to say the least. I anticipate many better solutions here from the LB mavens!
BRIGHTENER-RANDILY and BRIGANDINE-EARTHLY. Was hoping could work with THREADBARE and HAIRBREADTH
BLIGHTER-RANDY club for me & happy to solve in 2 after yesterday’s fail
Abridge eyeliner rant than
I am a dummy
BRIGHTER-RANDILY
Pleased to get a quick, if cheeky, solution today.
Fastest ever, BLIGHTER-RANDY, after a quick dalliance with RELIABLY.
Followed the same course reliably.
Randy Blighter sounds like a name from Dickens.
Rebrand Daylight
Ditto
Same here!
Same.
Brighter Randily for me too, while vaguely aware that there were many variations that I wasn’t going to pursue.
Joining the BLIGHTER-RANDY crowd for a quick solve today.
breadline-eighty
Same here!
That Randy, he’s just bad news.
Lol, started with BRIGHTER – RANDILY and then condensed it down to BLIGHTER – RANDY, then came here to see those were the first and second submitted answers. Guess that means we’re in good company! And CERTAINLY better solves all around than OA today…
Got the same combination…
HANDLEBAR – RIGIDITY
Plenty of TI, but not very inspiring. I like Kat’s much better.
It’s all about the wax!
Ditto!
The TI claim really confused me until I realized you were talking about mustaches!
CLOSE TO MINE: HANDLEBAR—RIGHTY
Handlebar righty
Yours is more elegant!
Handbreadth Highly
A lot of Hs but will have to do for now
REBEND—DAYLIGHT
Capture the Sun through a prism.
REBRAND—DAYLIGHT
Spring ahead, Fall back.
Ditto both. I like the second one better and look forward to buying some under its new name.
REBRAND-DAYLIGHT here too
Blighter & Randy.
Randy blighter (backwards) gives an entirely different meaning.
BRIGHTENER READILY
I prefer Kat’s solution though
Ditto! I expect to see lots of fun solutions today – loving MICA’s below as well.
Same here..
BRIGHTENER-READILY here too. Needlessly long but mercifully quick.
This for me
Blighty Yearend
That’s a dilly, Gilly!
New Year’s Eve in London.
The OA rhymes with Aberdeen Methil, two places on Scotland’s east coast. But that’s a different puzzle…
Where you might easily spot a gabardine (-wearing) Ethyl on a park bench, I suppose…
Bartend Daylight for all the day drinkers!
REBRAND-DAYLIGHT
LIGHTENER – READABLY
Same.
Rebrand Daylight, put it in a bottle and sell it.
My first solution was RIGHTHAND – DYEABLE, which the puzzle accepted, but it turns out that RIGHTHAND is not PSW. So on to LIGHTYEAR – REBRAND, but … you guessed it … LIGHTYEAR isn’t a PSW, either. Finally settled on REBRAND – DAYLIGHT, which from now on I would like you to call X.
The Illumination Formerly Known as Daylight–needs a unique symbol.
Ha! X indeed.
RIGHTHAND – DYEABLE was good enough for me, and I gave up there.
REBRAND THE LIGHT
for DW
A blighter, randy for some sex,
Writes an earthy text, refines
The threadbare sky of daylight’s hex;
A handbreadth’s measure redefines.
Abridge the spell, just call it “X”,
Rebrand the light with brighter lines.
BANDAGE EARTHILY
Should have accepted BANDINAGE ( but did not) EARTHLY
Oh! Because it’s BADINAGE EARTHLY!
I was about to say, having just gone back to the puzzle and found Badinage Earthly myself! AKA Playing Blue.
Bandage Earthily was good too. Like using lambs’-ear leaves and spider silk to dress a wound.
Sorry, that would be Badinage Earthily.
Same!
bandage – earthily
DAYLIGHT–TRAINABLE
It seems more pedestrian than the other solutions I’ve found, but I’ll take it. Never in a hundred years would I have come up with the OA.
Handlebar – Righty
blighty – yearend, should have been considered an OA answer
Not efficient, but….
DAYLIGHT – TRAINABLE
Bartend-Daylight
Same!
HANDLEBAR – RIGHTY
righthand – dyeable
So many answers today!
Blighter and Randy
Brightener Readily
