All votes now in. 8 clues received either 1 or 2 votes; darla @4 got 4 votes, aristo @27 5 votes, dorrien @15 6 votes.
bronze medal goes to jono @10 with 8 votes.
Unfortunately there's a tie for first place between paulH @5 and jono @8 with 9 votes.
paul's @5 is very well constructed, but I liked jono's @8 as soon as I saw it, so he gets my casting vote.
Gold - jono
Silver - paulH
Bronze - jono

The prizes. The first one is the obvious one. It takes a bit of time to get started:

Bravo, Jono, on your two medals. Commiserations, Paul. Thanks for hosting, Chris, and thanks to all who voted for my clues. And now that song is going to be in my head the rest of the day.

Well done, jono, and thanks, chris; tiebreak justified on all counts, including jono's additional third place. Before voting for jono @8 I put AQUARIUMS into my trusty Scrabble checker and it was fine as an alternative to aquaria. Thanks also to my voters, especially buddy and aristo for the doubles.

Well done PaulH & Jono - pleased I voted for both! Thanks to Geeker & Paul for votes. Good word choice Chrise - enjoyed the clips - the second reminded me of the famous ...` Now is the discount of our winter tents`.
