Mith and Pervinca, that's how I feel lately about most of your Password cryptic clues. They just seem to be too far for me to reach, and then you just tick them off like boxes on a survey...
Galadriel, I usually feel the same with your clues - I remember something about a "lady in letters" which had me completely flummoxed. And "unique specimen" for only one dragon was really clever. :impressed:

Reminds me of an Oxonmoot in the early noughties when one group entry for the masquerade was people dressed as all the pub names in LOTR.

Like Mith, I am the Un-Barliman when it comes to cryptic clues (may CS Lewis forgive me for that dreadful pun).
