Runaway winner this month – well done Don! Much closer for the minor placings with Margaret just pipping Arnold and JT with Peter grabbing 5th spot. Thanks to everyone – a very entertaining competition!


Entry Information

Your challenge for April is a LETTERS LATENT clue to MOONSHINE by the closing date of MIDNIGHT UK TIME (BST) SATURDAY 2nd MAY.
 
Your LETTERS LATENT clue to MOONSHINE should contain a definition of the unmutilated word, but the subsidiary indication should refer to the word with one letter (of your choice) missing wherever it occurs.
 
For instance, if you choose O as your latent letter, then as well as defining MOONSHINE, your clue must contain a subsidiary indication that leads to MNSHINE. If N is your latent letter then the subsidiary indication must lead to MOOSHIE, and so on.
 
Please start the EXPLANATION of your clue by stating which letter you have chosen to be latent in order to help the judging.
