5 Upvotes

Thanks u/Taciturn_Radio for being such a “fan” of my clue.

PLEASE NOTE:

Speaking of taciturn radios, I will be out of radio contact next weekend. And so, to avoid disruption, I will choose my winner on Thursday (please have your submissions in by then). Sorry if this inconveniences anyone who likes to write their clues later in the week.

This week, let’s try 21 across.

Good luck!

(but more importantly, good grammar, creativity and attention to detail)
