In the end there were 28 clues from 16 setters. Thanks to all who took on the challenge.

At this moment we have Paul @6, KT17@29, Mattrom@18, Spike2 @28 and Mattrom @23 with 1 vote each

Penda@21 and Tatters@3 have 2 votes each.

In the lead with 4 votes is BBM2 @35

Mattrom and Fiery are still to vote so there is a possibility that there could be a tie.
I'll be back at 10 pm to announce the winner.

mattrom@18 also has two votes.

spike2 #28

Lots of problems getting on the site today, so

Spike 2 @ 28

I had a recount and was a vote short. Mattrom @18 had 2 votes.

Spike @28 has moved into the silver position with a commendable 3 votes but with 4 votes our winner is BBM2 with his succinct

Chip shop equipment. (7)

(I think I would have finished it off with a ? or !)

Well done Marty. Here are your prizes. The second is particularly topical as we approach 11 pm!

Congratulations, bigbad, and thanks, rossim. And thanks so much for the mention, ginge; I'd been thinking about packing it in.

Nice BBM2, cheers rossim.

aristo, you might just want to take a break to refresh the batteries as I often do. Your mention equally appreciated as I wonder how many actually bothered to parse my effort as it can't be all that bad if it gets the thumbs up from your good self.

You're too kind, Ginger One.

Congrats BBm2 I agree ? would have been better
Thanks Rossim. Great word.
Power on Aristo and Ginge

Well done smart and commiserations Spike!
Thanks Rossim for a lovely word.


@Aristo; please don’t be too downheartened! I for one always admire your skill - sometimes just way too subtle for my simple brain! Would simply be a massive vacuum without you.
