| 1. | Now that's better: this def is specifically relevant to the surface story. Its separation from the rest is weak, but still a nice clue. |

| The competition word doesn't really offer a great variety of approaches for either wordplay or definition. Hence there are so many similar entries this month, and it takes more than slightly better wording for a clue to stand out. I liked 27 and 33 for their original approaches, and 37 and 44 for neat use of French names. Just ahead though is 10, which manages a very natural and concise surface as well as misleading wordplay. |
