Jayne, I've just re-read the winning entries (I still prefer yours and Chris's, and that's not nepotism speaking - after all, he's not my nephew, and you are certainly not my niece), and I'm perplexed by the first one. In the main, it rhymes, or half-rhymes. But are we supposed to believe that 'purse' and 'difference' are by any stretch of the imagination a rhyme? Or are there some subtleties of prosody that have escaped me?
