Hi rambler
Not often I can catch you out!
Emrach said "just for fun" - I'm not sure that she is intending to vote.

chrise, you may very well be right - I'll leave it until 9pm to see if emrach votes before making the dreaded decision (groan)

Well it looks like it's down to me. I really want to be as fair as I can but before I decide may I ask red'elf for a full parse of his clue?

Off course you may:

Drug mules - smugglers
come after - juxtaposition indicator
one - I
held in - containment indicator
stir - budge
def - they're a bit tight (tenuous)


I personally think the other two contenders are better than my effort (no offence intended to those who have voted for me)

Hi ChrisE is correct I did say just for fun, sorry if didn't make my self clear. I just felt there was a lack of female contribution and of course couldn't resist. Sorry rambler the choice is yours xx

Thanks, red'elf - I was trying to make a subtractive anagram out of the clue without success but I'd rather appear stupid than not be fair.

I've decided to pass the baton to redundantelf for

Drug mules come after one held in stir, they're a bit tight (6,9)

You prize is this educational clip

This second clip offers a glimpse of Aussie culture but should not be viewed by the easily offended....
