Thanks Marty and Paul. Alles klar.
Time to have a think. I'll be back.

Viel Spass!

Decision time. A good, high-quality response. I really liked them all, but the ones that tickled my fancy most were Chris's irreverent post 2/28, the ever inventive aristo and mattrom's posts 14 & 19 respectively and the chutzpah of Paul's post 9 (es ist immer viel Spaß, Paul). But the standout clue for me this week was ginge's post 20, for its combination of ingenuity and smooth surface. So, congratulations, ginge.

I was hoping to find a worthwhile clip to complement this week's word but I couldn't manage it. This is doggie related at least, and I hope it brings a smile: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=M0yjaMpPEyU

Thanks to everyone for taking part. Cheers for now.

Well done Ginge - thanks Peterm - thought the dog was about to eat the skateboard!

Congrats ginge - it took me some time to work it out!

Thanks peterm, and also for the mention. Have you read Philip Pullman's The Amber Spyglass? Animals with wheels!

Well done, Ginge - ingenious clue. Thanks, Peterm for an interesting word and the mention.
The clip wasn't available in my area, but I found another one of Tillman. He doesn't look aerodynamically designed for the activity....

No he doesn't, mattrom. It must all be in his technique. I confess, I haven't read it, Chris, but I don't think it will make my reading list.

Congrats ginge - superb clue. Danke sehr, peterm.

You do have to have read two other books first!

Well done, Ginge. Clever clue. Cheers, PeterM. Now I know what to get the dog for her birthday next month.
