Evening all!

Wow, what a fantastic response to this weeks competition, thanks everyone for taking part!
Many multi-definition clues (Ixion topping the list with his quadruple "plucky duck" clue!) and Rosalinds "Megabucks" (wonderfully concise!) were early front-runners.
BBM's "Fivestones" and Les40's "foul play" clues were contenders, as was Shooty's "lunar teen".
.
The joy of judging, this week, has been the humour a lot of you have put into your clues: ramblers "willing bird", Pastilles "lady gaga meat outfit", Busby's "I am if you are" and Ixion again with "unmarried Gemma"

But, winner this week is JWS with "Old maid has a grouse and finds a loo".
A comical triple-definition which has left a lasting image in my mind! (I laughed so much I nearly pee'd myself!) So, without further ado, heres your prize
