Cryptic clue

[slogen51]

I did start on this and got side tracked sorry

Blind composers ? Bach

Barkston heath - although I already know that is not enough

[Thunder]

I just thought every one had got fed up with them.

Slogen is on the right track.

[Tiger 1]

Following on from Slogens lead

RAF Andreas?

From Andrea Bocelli.

Could it also be...

RAF Debach
USAAF Station 152... Suffolk 1944 - 1945

[slogen51]

Handel's Messiah - Misawa ?

Nope

[Thunder]

Nope, you were correct with Bach, you just need to expand on it.

“his final work or near enough”

[slogen51]

This is fiendish

So this could be a sounds like answer

According to Google Bach's last work translates to the Art of Fuge ?

Or is it more simple - final work - end job etc?

Sembach

[TB1]

Ansbach - just a wild guess no idea how it fits!!

[Thunder]

Final or near enough = semi
Couldn’t see eye to eye = sem
Composer that couldn’t see= Bach

= Sembach

Well done Slogen

[slogen51]

I got the Bach bit but I didnt get the Semi ( if you would pardon the expression!)

It was just a shot in the dark.

Another one - probably not that challenging

You wouldn't be surprised to see the dude Ali at this USAF base!

[rh226]

Al Udeid!!!

[slogen51]

Er Correct!

[rh226]

"Direct the way back about the cutter from this base".

[slogen51]

Barbers point

Boom boom

[rh226]

Unfortunately...no.

Good try though, but doesn't fit the clue on two counts.

[Thunder]

Shearwater CFB ?

[rh226]

Nope.

A US base.

[Tiger 1]

Hi rh226

I will have a go with...

Point Mugu

T1

[slogen51]

Was a cutter - Saw , Axe as in Shaw AFB but the h doesn't fit

Wondering if this is a more traditional cryptic clue where the first part surrounds the cutter .....saw.. , ....axe...etc

The back keyword suggests a word backwords

(I thought Cutter was a barber and direct was point hence barbers point)

[Alf]

Easy one..

"This base has its ups and downs…."
