Comments on the clue
1.Succinct and effective with a fine surface reading
2.Good misleading surface
3.Not sure the order of your clue works. 'Long for first two lips to kiss' would work better.
4.A good clue. Nicely to the point but the extra wording in 50 actually adds something in this case.
5.Clever use of not half!
6.Should really indicate 'rarely' but worth a point
