Paul Keating cast the first vote and immediately ruined any hopes I might have had of a D0 by voting for the real def: 10 - Constantine's standard.  Mr Erudition Barrs was DQ, but no one else voted for the word, leaving me with a D1.  Johnny Barrs takes the next deal with 5 votes for his wide-lipped Roman bath, and Paul Keating is the real winner with an unnatural 3.

Over to you, Johnny B!
