Our weekly competition to compose a cryptic clue to be judged by your fellow contestants.

You may enter as many clues as you like and everybody is welcome to have a go.

Feel free to explain your clue if you think it will help but please refrain from commenting on entries until voting has begun. You can ask another entrant to explain their clue if you wish.

If you enter you can vote for your favourite clue (please include the post number). You cannot vote for your own clue.

The entry with the most votes wins and its composer sets next week's competition.

Please post your clue by 2 pm (UK time) on Friday 16th October, when voting opens. Voting closes at 11 pm (UK time). The result will be announced as soon as possible after that time.

The setter has a deciding vote in the event of a tie and may change the rules if necessary.

The setter will declare the winner and award an online prize.

The answer to be clued is-
