Peterm #15

Ok times up, there is still a possible tie but I shall wait no longer , the deadline has passed.

Our little contest goes from strength to strength with another very good response this week.

The most popular clue this week was mattrom's brilliant #36

Pip, Dickens' ultimate character (5) ...classy.

Thanks to all taking part and commiserations to peterm for two runner=ups.

See you all soon

Congrats again mattrom.

Thanks BBM2, and for the clips. The first one was particularly interesting as there's a long (400m?) 19th century railway wall in our village made of closely-fitting stone blocks, all of different shapes and sizes. We were speculating only a couple of days ago how they were all fitted togther.

The other one reminded me of one of the first "It'll be alright on the night" clips - there's a fire at the Firestone tyre factory. The poor reporter just couldn't say it. I've only managed to find an audio, but I'm sure there was a video too:

Yet another gem Mattrom - well done! Good word choice Marty - enjoyed the fireman clip ... Thanks for the vote Peterm and mentions, Chrise, Rossim, Paulh & Dorrien - unexpected but much appreciated ... Sharon sends her love! 💖

Congrats Mattrom, very nice, and thanks Marty for the challenge.
Thanks to Buddy for the vote and to Chris and MathsP for the likes, cheers. Now back to what seems like Latin maths homework!

Well done Mattrom
Thanks MPRS for the like and vote
Thanks Marty, I enjoyed the clips

Thanks for the like, Jono, and for the votes, Chrise and Rossim.

Good comp., BBM, and congratulations, mattrom. Re Pip and cast: my surname has been misspelled in various ways, but I've had more Havershams than Havishams. I wonder how many times I have recited H..A..B for bravo...finishing with O..N for November.
