Congrats Tyke, well deserved. Many thanks Mattrom for your long stint of hosting, great fun. Thanks to Chris, Patrich and Paul for votes, and likes from Tyke, Spike, Aristo and Fiery, much appreciated

Congrats tyke. Thanks mattrom, and for the mention spike.

Keas are notorious for stealing windscreen wipers at car parks; nearly as bad as baboons at safari parks!

Thanks Mattrom - I think some were `clued out` after their Clueless efforts. Enjoyed the cool parrots - they must get fed up with the tropical climate and need a winter break.
Thanks for your vote Buddy, Jono, Fj & jws and likes Patrich & Aristo. I tried to do a Cambridge 4/5 ( Philby, Blunt et al ) clue but failed miserably, thankfully reverting to the homophone! Look forward seeing you all next week.

Congratulations tyke, nice one! Thanks for your vote, to aristo for yours, and to jono, spike2 and fieryjack for the likes.

Thanks for hosting … again … mattrom. I think defining aspire, etc. in many different ways was a challenge!

Very nice, tyke! Thanks for hosting yet again, mattrom, and for the mentions, tyke, patrich, and spike.

Congratulations Tyke
Cheers Mattrom and that sounds like the theme music for the next big Netflix drama

Well done Tyke and cheers Mattrom!
