OK, all votes now in.
Tied for second on 6 votes:
jono @13 (my favourite, in fact)
spike @23
buddy @28

But a clear winner, with 10 votes:
jono @29
Somewhere in Iraq a battle where Lawrence fought (5)
Well done (again) jono!

Bonus, because I like it so much – there’s a standing disagreement between me and my daughter and son-in-law whether it is better than the original – they’re wrong!

And a chance to share my favourite “overhearing”, told to me by a friend.
An elderly woman and a middle-aged woman in a department store:
“Look, there’s Lawrence”
“That’s not Lawrence, mother, it’s Keith”
“Well I knew it was something of Arabia”

Thanks to all who took part - see you next week.

Well done jono and thanks chrise.

What a voice . Her versions of No Man's Land and the Band Played Waltzing Matilda send shivers down my spine.
