Kieron Dineen, Newport: Reconstructed momentus Ruhr rock-faces (5,8) MOUNT RUSHMORE

Kieron Dineen, Newport: MP leaves Smashing Pumpkins to roll a joint (4,2) SKIN UP

Stuart Reed, Kibbutz Hulda: Riff-raff rip off (4,4) TEAR AWAY

And the winners:

BRONZE: Clues don't have to be tough to be of high quality: Nick Lancaster, Witham, Essex: An untrue accusation? I'll be ruined! (5) LIBEL

SILVER: Fun from James Glassonbury, Stonehouse, Glos: Out of shape, get piles (5)

AND THE WINNER!

GOLD: Kieron Dineen, Newport, for a delightfully simple idea: Sound asleep (7) SNORING

Good stuff. Keep 'em coming!

All the best,

John (Paul)
