well done pip...

Pip pip Pip!

Many thanks Peterm, it must be very hard to pick between the offers. Whatever happened to Hale and Pace!
I'll kick off again next Tuesday.

Well done Phillip

Well done to you phillip and thanks for hosting this week's 'show' peterm. Loads of great clues, so well done everyone!

Hi Phillip
Congratulations ( and celebrations!!!)
Thought your 29 was very good but thought mine were marginally better. HaHa
Am having a great many second thoughts about dear old THINGY. There seem to be a plethora of comps suddenly. Several in trouble.
Might do a BIGGY THINGY and then bow gracefully and exit left.
But enjoy the rest and the temperature!!!
Yrs THEA

I'm intrigued by aristo's post 30 but can't unscramble it. Can someone explain?

Well done, Phillip!

Re post 57. May be wrong but took it to be
Severe partisan unhinged, dismissing pain as ephemera -
Severe - "Shooting" as in "shooting pain",
partisan unhinged dismissing pain is "partisan" less "pain" giving "star",
as ephemera- definition - Greek original means "Things which last only a short time"

AQER:
Severe partisan unhinged, dismissing pain as ephemera (8,4)

Severe: acute, SHOOTING (as in __pain)
partisan (guerrilla) unhinged (deranged [anagram])
dismissing pain (ridding partisan of P-A-I-N)
ephemera: short-lived phenomenon/SHOOTING STAR
