Evening all!
Thanks everyone for entering and having a go at a word which I felt might be quite tricky to clue. Welcome back peterm, dorrien and ixion!

There were lots of clever devices used; subtractive anagrams, hidden word clues, cryptic definitions and various other types of wordplay. But in the end it came down to a difficult choice between two acrostic clues - stevea @ 23 and peterm @ 15

Sorry guys, I couldn't decide between you two so I flipped a coin, the winner being peterm @ 15 with,

Leeward islander, maybe, bending over, starts to dance (5)

Well done peter. Your prize is, of course, a trip to that place lying somewhere between Heaven and Hell (it looks more like Hell to me!)

Nice one, PeterM! I'm really glad that you've won, not just because your clue deserved it, but also because I feel you unfairly lost out in the Peer Review I set earlier in the month. Your clue was my personal favourite so, had FJ's vote for you gone through, you would have been amongst the front runners and would have got the casting vote.

Cheers, the rogue.
