The answers to these cryptics are Forum member names.
They are some of the most prolific members, so the names will be easily recognizable and known to most.

Not too easy, some lateral thinking required.

1. Quite quiet orange vitamin upset clients. (7)
2. Why yes, I bow for mangled English. (8)
3. Who would steal body odour? Must be that woodcutter mutt! (5,)
4. In the middle of a bout, we’ll be in the ring. (12)
5. Dazed wino glided without ecstasy, beside the Indian. (4, 5)
6. Town, as rebuilt using element tree. (6)
7. Old West Australian initially from Victoria. (5)
8. Tanned skin can be prickly when disturbed. (7)
9. Where lemmings leap over cheerless pirate ensigns (5, 6)
10. Hides Bee Gee, disguised of course, in large enclosed area. (3, 4)

3.

Echnidna is 8, not 7. I had him before but changed it because it was too long.

Skew ChiDAMN!!

Yup. The clue gives an answer of Echidna (7 letters, made from 'Hide' & 'Can')

But quite a few people haven't noticed that Bob's fingers slipped an extra N in when he wasn't looking, mebbe a certain question poser among 'em? :innocent:

Very clever Outbackrr :2tsup:
