The challenge generated a pleasing number of posts (though some of them not actual entries).

I liked tyke @6 for the upper-class young ladies who probably would ban phony jewellery, geeker @10/17 if I’ve interpreted his “bollocks” correctly, jono @11 (and tyke’s “invaders” @30), darla @14 (see prize 1), dorrien @15 – I didn’t know that about marriage symbols, jono @16 (but see later), and mattrom @34.
