PEER REVIEW 135

A competition to compose the best cryptic clue, judged by your fellow contestants.

You may enter as many clues as you like and everybody is welcome to have a go.

Please feel free to explain your clue if you think it will help. If it looks as though there will be a tie tomorrow evening, I would very much appreciate a parse from those in the running (earlier if you like, but I know people like to work out the parsing for themselves)

Everybody who enters may vote for their favourite clue - please include the post number but please refrain from commenting on entries until voting has begun.

The entry with the most votes wins and its composer sets next week's competition.

Post your clue by 1pm Friday July 18th, when voting opens; deadline for voting is 10pm Friday (BST).

The setter has a deciding vote in the event of a tie and may change the rules if necessary.

The setter will declare the winner and donate an online prize.

I was thinking of setting SYZYGY (6), but I remembered bullfrog's adminition not to set single-meaning words!

So this week's answer to be clued is: LABYRINTH(9)
