Rusty, Elle, Pigalle... an old friend (!) popped up in today's Sunday Times cryptic crossword.
10 A Fashionable but not central part of London (6).

With respect to the clues we've suffered this week, here's one from me...

1 A. Spooner challenges mountain in Glasgow location (8).

Hi Malone,

Have not worked out your own clue yet, but 10A is familiar - I am sure we had it not that long ago - and for once I remember the answer !

Pigale, I would be delighted if you got the answer to my clue, but it is very unlikely!

Yes, got 10A, Malone!
I shall have to think about the other one.....

Good luck, Elle - though you might not need it!

Malone, I have an answer for the Glasgow one, but...
The spelling is different?
Unless I am up the Crow Road again!

Rusty, it could be my clue that's faulty! I hope my attempt worked - the answer is Bearsden, to Spooner it would have been Dares Ben, challenges mountain.

For those of you who've never heard of Bearsden, it's a suburb of Glasgow - it's bigger than Acton!

That's what I thought, Malone.
But, Bearsden would be Daresben for Spooner.
Not quite the same?

I see what you mean, Rusty - blame it on my lack of Spoonerability! I'm going to see if I can add a couple of words, or a phrase, so that it would actually work. I didn't expect Elle or Pigale to get it, but thought you might.

Go for it, Malone!
