Congrats BBM2, good clue. Thanks for hosting Les40 and an interesting word.

I do agree with ChrisE about Stevezodiac's clue at @ 10.

Stand out BBM2, cheers Les.

@BBM2. A friend of a friend has a 1/4 share of a horse that is entered for races at Carlisle on the 16th and/or Newcastle the 28th (I think) next month. Should it run at Gosforth Park we'll be travelling to and from your fair city by train. If you fancy meeting up for a few beers? I could always catch a later one home. It would be good to put a face with the name.

Well done bbm2 and thanks to les for the word(s)

Thanks also to chrise and samgamgee for their kind mention, although I would have chosen bbm's clue if it were Peer Review.

Cheers Les I'm chuffed to bits about this ! When I saw your word my first thoughts were how the heck to cope with a double z , some of the entries found some ways of clueing it .

My effort was inspired by the old joke about a visit to the seaside ruined by witnessing domestic violence , child abuse and police brutality ; order only being restored when the crocodile ate the sausages .

@ginge - yeah I'm up for that mate just remind me nearer the time , maybe Les could broker this via the JE emails he's got .

Thanks to everyone for the congrats and I'll see you all next week . @Rosalind could you help pleeease !

Well done bbm2 - excellent clue imho :). Thanks for the challenging word les.

@bbm2 Beware Scottish people saying they're up for a 'few' beers - especially that ginge guy (btw he's bald) as you never know what the outcome could be. If a beer fest does ensue - my brother lives in Gateshead so I could always arrange a visit to coincide :)
