Hooray!!
Great clue, mrw. I am currently writing about a sailor who allowed no spirits on his ships (1840s to 1860s), but then he was in the Merchant Service. Bet he wasn't popular with everyone.
I looked at your clue 8 Pau before I saw to what it referred. I agree with Thea, special mention!
Hope you've all been enjoying this brilliant sunshine

For sailor read Captain. Sorry, been at the aforementioned.

Just in from the Golf Course. I'm stunned, I have to admit to swearing when I read the result, and I had to read it more than once!
What a pleasant surprise and early birthday present, I'm 65 next week. Thank you BBM2 and everyone else, fascinating prize.
The only down side is I don't get to play next week,but I can put up with that.
Now I will have to dig out that clip from you tube which andyc found for me on cutting and pasting.

Well done MRW! Time for you to have a win - great clue.
Is it Mr. W or are they all your initials?

Either way happy birthday for next week.

Thanks for the mention, Ros and THEA!
