Bazza scored twice and Frank Osen, George Simmers and myself once each. Rude entries did not make the cut. By the way, you have to pronounce Menzies as Mingis, as we Scots do, to make sense of one of the entries.

You are invited to supply an extract from a hitherto undiscovered Lewis Carroll work, Alice’s Adventures in ... (Parliament? Ayia Napa? It’s up to you to fill in the blanks, but 150 words maximum). Please email entries, where possible, to lucy@spectator.co.uk by midday on 13 April.

Wot's Ayia Napa? Someone tell me please.

[Jayne Osborn]

John,

Ayia Napa is a resort in Cyprus where the 'clubbing' set go, to get drink, drugs, sex...

No, I haven't been there either.

[George Simmers]

It's a resort in Cyprus where rich footballers and other celebs get together to party mindlessly. Give me Bognor any day of the week.

[George Simmers]

As Jayne has already explained.

[Ann Drysdale]

Bugger Bognor...

[John Whitworth]

Thank you. I've never been to Bognor either. I have been to Weston-super-Mare, though. The fast-track high life has not entirely passed me by.

I've been to Joppa beach too. That's Joppa near Edinburgh you understand.
