Hi ElizabethC don't think this is right but what about Whakkapapa, I've been looking for all sorts of combinations and can't find it anywhere,

A bit unfair of me to pick a small place but it is in fact ... Waipapa... in Northland near Kerikeri. I spotted it while searching for Kawakawa. Haven't been there but might do a tiki tour up north next feb when I have my holidays.

Hope someone else is better at the clue thing than moi!

Reckon the pronunciation probably got something to do with as well, I would have pronounced it Waypapa, you would probably say Whypapa, hence your clues.

I spotted this place whilst looking for Waipapa, top of the South Island, small place I think, but if I told my 6 year olds that we were going to visit this place they wouldn't stop laughing for a week, ( toilet humour ) sorry if I've offended anyone who lives there. There are several holiday parks in the area. It's next to a place with an equally funny name.

Do you mind if I have a go at giving clues. Mind you I am not good at cryptic crosswords so please excuse if it not very good.

Anyway here goes.

Do you have a cob on?
Seen a bouncing bomb?
