Ok, how about this one.
Just so you know I have been working on some visuals for an airport so don't think I am going so far out of my way to create such a scene.

Nun shall pass?
There's also this one

...and this one.

Deep, fat, fryer [friar]

Yep. Sorry about the last two not being SU, but I'm not on my SU machine right now...and I'm bored.
-
an old joke... it's... ?
[another nun by the way] -
I am stumped on your first one Alan. Is that Loch Ness?
I am also stumped on Tig's. -
Well it is verging on the ridiculous...
[nun...virgin...verging on giant-pink-elephant...ridiculous] -
No, not Loch Nes...it's a fjord.
@TIG And you had the nerve to puke at my deep fat friar?

Give that man a cigar!....or a chocolate fondant model of St. Basil's.

-
do you remember?

Unfortunately Jermey's didn't get any response. The only thing I get out of it is "Count" from the numbers but the only count I can think of that has anything to do with music is Count Basie but I don't think it's right.
Here's an obscure one but I wouldn't be to surprised if certain people get it.

Apart from the obvious boxing the compass could it be cannot find the way to think outside the box?
-
You're right. "Boxing the compass" it is.
Can you do it?
-
Never heard that expression before.
I have no clue what Jeremy's puzzle is. -
Boxing the compass is naming all 32 points going around in clockwise order starting at North. Not many people need to be able to do it these days, though. And other than the cardinal and ordinal points, the only other point many folks probably know (but don't associate with a compass) is "North by Northwest"
-
A little bit of movie trivia...there's no such compass direction as North by Northwest. There's North-northwest (NNW), North by west (NbW) and Northwest by north (NWbN); but no North by northwest.
Film buffs often attribute the title to the fact that the Cary Grant character heads North on a North West Airlines flight, but personally, I've no idea. Great movie though.
