I'll wrap this up now, apologies if you were working on a last minute entry.
We managed an average turnout with 18 clues from 9 setters.
Nice touches included paulh with the TT race and aristo's come-hither look.
On to the podium.
Bronze to paul #8 , a nice story neatly written.
Silver for geeker #10 , seamlessly hiding his hidden.
Gold awarded to jono #11 (preferred to #13) for a distracting DBE which would have got me chewing the pencil.
Bees, for example, settle in a buzz on the head of roses (7)
