Well done trevor, I am humbled in your presence. Dont understand the clue though, mind you I've had a couple. An explanation to a thicky would be greatly appreciated.

Thanks to all especially Peterm. The prize made me chuckle, i reckon the other 'One Ronnie' would have liked the wordplay.

Well done Trevor, well done peterm - look forward to next week. At least now I can put a name to those nonsense rhymes one was taught at school. (like - very many energetic monkeys jumped etc...)

Cheers...

@tonyw - the definition in my clue was 'Richard of York gave battle in vain', a mnemomic for the colours of the rainbow.

@peterm -- I thought I might just get away with MIC. You are hard but fair, quite rightly.

thanks therogue.

Bullfrog, you got me with MIC, i didn't question it and liked the clue.

MaryT - i think you may have the 1st two words of your mnemonic mixed up(if it's the order of the planets)
'my very excellent Mum just served us nine pints' is what i was given(altho Pluto isn't a planet anymore, i think it got barred for swearing).
