1. One who might perform late in French?
2. Boys with fiery facial features?
NINNYHAMMER: Grond used as a crusher of nincompoops?
4. Scrap of cloth and playground game return for this one.

Urwen - you mean HAM as in a hammy performance and A as in 'at' (sometimes where it would be 'in' in English?) That's clever, but it's a different synonym for 'perform' and a different word put into French.

Huinesoron, I knew you'd probably miss it, because it happened at the weekend, but I hope you enjoyed reading the final, solved product.

It was nearly a smaller password with SILENCE as the answer, but after trying a few numbers (and even capital letters I and O to spell 10) to no avail, luckily the word 'eleven' added to 'minus' gave eleven letters.

And before you start threatening me with the cube root of minus eleven, this latest one is mostly first letters and has no anagrams. (Well, it can't have. There are no anagram indicators!)
