Hi, I have got some ditloids that I am trying to solve, have already completed 106 but there are 4 which I am struggling with, can anyone help please??
They are:
10 P in a B
4 T as the F D (A E)
1 O B T S
3 T D
The initials in brackets could be a clue or may complete the saying
Thank you!!
4: Time as the fourth dimension (Albert Einstein)
isnt it 2 turtle doves not 3?
OBTS can mean once bitten twice shy but don't see how the 1 fits in! Aren't they maddening!
10 - unlikely but anything to do with 10 pin bowling? 10 pins in a.....?

I'd say you're right whitevoilet. When these were first posted a couple of days ago, I thought that the number at the beginning had to be part of the answer until:
markr wrote:4: Time as the fourth dimension (Albert Einstein)
so it appears that the number at the beginning is not necessarily part of the actual phrase itself.
You're right, they are maddening!
yes i agree with white violet on once bitten twice shy (one being related to once), we did originally think of 10 P ina B being something to do with 10 pin bowling but cant find anything to fit.
they are very maddening!
thank you for all your help so far!
Have u got the answer to the first one yet, please? would like to know the solution!
yes, its 10 pecks in a bushel
thanks for all ur help!
I had thought of 10 pecks in a bushel, but all the tables i found quoted 4 pecks in a bushel. Oh well!
