Yep. I guess the stratosphere could be considered to be "space" and you get stars in space (that was my logic before when I brought it up), so I can't think of anything better.

I think we've basically gotta go for it, can't give them another turn or they're bound to win.

Good choice on passing on the last one, team - there wasn't another one to get. I used both hawser and pinafore for ship.

Amusingly, Grim... and I both realised we only know the word because it's written on the Thames Clipper at the point where the mooring rope is tied up (and where you queue to get on).

Hawser was a terrible clue, you buffoon. So was "pressure" in a grid with "submarine" in it.

I had that open, but it was grey when I checked, and I guess I didn't reload it, I didn't recheck it when I said it the second time. My excuse is that my left eye feels like someone sprayed acid in it, and it's been hurting all day.
