Thank you for a fantastic response. As ever, the high calibre of all the entries never ceases to amaze me, which makes the job of picking a winner even more difficult. Like peterm from last week, I really could have picked any one of the entries - please give yourselves a big pat on the back. There are too many to mention individually so I hope you will forgive me for not highlighting them all as I would be here all night! However, I did finally manage to narrow it down to 4 front runners.

So without further ado –

Runner 1 bullfrog @3 - A cleverly worded clue and well hidden anagram

Runner 2 bbm2 @12 – If only for a K – but still cunningly clever

Runner 3 ixion @32 – Great wordplay and a well crafted clue, imho

But, just pipping them all at the post, is emrach’s brilliantly hilarious and cheeky entry @31

“It's not just under kilts where Scots crown jewels can be seen!!! “

Works for me in every way, well done you naughty girl lol

To keep the Edinburgh theme going - your prize, which I hope you will enjoy, is a clip of one of my favourite comedians performing at the Festival with a rather non PC joke. I do hope no-one takes offence – if you do, then I apologise in advance (it was broadcast on the BBC).

Thanks once again to everyone for taking part.
