Thank you for your excellent entries. Some of the front runners included rosiland @ 2 (despite apparently having trouble with her vowels), ab’s typically ab-esque clue @ 5, imagcq and ixion’s culinary efforts @ 18 & 20 (although the mind boggles at the thought of Heston-style experimentation, and, indeed, at the idea of cooking a trifle in an Aga) but the winner with a late run was therogue @ 21: Horrible woman at magazine composed article of no merit.
Congratulations to therogue, your prize is a virtual magic trick. Apologies if you’ve seen it before, but I hope it amuses you, and you can in turn use it to amaze others. This is the address for the site, then scroll down to the Princess Card Trick
