My clue 40 was actually:
"The ship has no rumpled sail or speed of fare, kept from the port"
-> "The ship has no rum; plastered sailors, peed off, are kept from the port"
but an internet problem near the deadline meant what was submitted was a mid-edit combo of two drafts. Apologies to the judges for the screw up. It wouldn't have troubled the excellent 21, 37, and 8 anyway. |

The ‘baste roast’ and ‘waste recycled’ clues took all my points, these were the best ideas (of the ones I could vote for!), especially 21, 42 and 8. |
