Highbridge, Somerset who won prize crossword 17 despite the fact a vital clue was missing.
The Hawk trusts you will wear your CM polo shirt, chest puffed with justifiable pride, Mr Blyth, and my compliments to the small band of crossword aces who also sent in correct answers but were not pulled out of the hat. Once again my apologies to lesser mortals who were simply baffled by the illogicality of it all.
• The Hawk's advice to truckstop customers: Never pour oil on troubled waiters — they'll only drop your chips.
Happy eating.
