Loads of shapes: a right angle, a circle, and some perpendicular lines (3)

(I tried to describe the shapes of L O T - it might be an entirely illegitimate clue)

Thank you all for your entries. So many to like - I apologise for missing some of you out but these are my favourites.
Straight off the bat with smooth (polished?) surface was Amej 2. Loved Tyke’s Polish airlines 6/9 but think you missed a trick with a “Zloty” reduction. Liked Raffles auction 4, and “La belle vie” courtesy of Jon 16. Liked Buddy’s stroller at 18 too. Coming up against stiff competition (not sclerotic) was Aristo’s rattling 20.

However - please sit down we don’t want any accidents - my choice this week is Swarbrules 7 - worthy of Dragon’s Den!


Somehow lost a great deal


Your prizes (when you have scraped yourself off the ceiling);

Lot 1; Lot

Lot 2; Lots

And going for the third time Lot 3;
More than just lots - try “infinity”

Well done again! PS may I enquire as to the meaning of your moniker?

[Paul
I asked swarbrules that after we saw Fairport Convention recently. It's a tribute to their early fiddler, now departed, Dave Swarbrick.]

Thank you Paul. At last my genius has been recognised. :-)

Now, admit it, It's what every winner thinks but never says.

Many good entries for such a short word and many worthy of winning.

Now what do I do? Do I just copy and paste the blurb with appropriate amendments?

As to the name, you'll find out when I reveal my prezzies.

Thanks Paul and congrats Swarbs, very neat.

I note your profile pic on the Guardian forum is a fiddle which fits with the Dave Swarbrick connection. Do you play?
