Hello everyone and thanks to all who took part this week.
I'm calling this a little early as I must attend a birthday party (for an 11 year old - taking ear plugs, dancing shoes and a pack of cards for tricks!)
No need to take any comment to heart or be miffed if you're not mentioned, anyway here's a few that caught the eye.
therogue's #6 - didn't notice it was so &littish could maybe have done with the ! or ? - same for jack#7.
heath #11 - nice alternative def. with the athlete (but he's not a hurdler)
les40 #15 love the surface but should there be some kind of indication to "split" bulletin?
tr/fj 19/20 - you two again what's going on! A nice idea -slightly prefer jack's inference for a container rather than an anagram but maybe too easy to solve.
rambler#24 - brilliant idea but is it too much to ask us non-cardiologists for a definition? (We've been here before and will just have to differ!)
ixion 26,27,28 three solid late entries but not really slapping me in the face.
My winner this week is chrise @5
Sir Thomas Beecham, berserk at inclusion in reference work? (8)
Not often I'd go for a hidden word but I like the way I would have been grubbing round for an anag, with "berserk"
Your prize is a little trick to impress people who think they're good with numbers
