The unclued lights are all geographical locations – paired as anagrams: 13/9, 23/28. 30/17, 34/6 and 42/33. (33 Down is a river rather than a place-name, but DONETSK (33+K) would have maintained the theme more specifically, but then it is not an anagram of OSTEND!)
First prize Magdalena Deptula, Eton, Berkshire
Runners-up D.G. Tallis, Oxford; Alexander Caldin, Salford, Oxfordshire
