Results: Clue writing contest 1969 Coalport Ciaran Daly, Cork, Ireland Fuel tanker's left China Fuel = COALtanker's left = PORT China = definition If Coalport is unfamiliar as a word, its main meaning is a type of porcelain, produced at a Shropshire village of the same name, mainly in the 19th century. It was often decorated with colourful moulded patterns, often in floral designs. In this seemingly simple clue, dividing the word into its most obvious parts, there are a couple of subtleties. The first is 'fuel tanker' needing to be split up and 'tanker' being part of 'tanker's left' ('tanker' being a kind of ship), and another is 'China' apparently in its geographical meaning.

Brendon McCullum says he is excited about the "magic" that could occur in the Ashes and has promised England will not deviate from their aggressive approach. England begin an eagerly-anticipated summer with a one-off Test against Ireland at Lord's on Thursday, but already much of the chat is about the series with Australia. After a string of poor showings both on home soil and Down Under, the script was ripped up this time last year when managing director Rob Key decided to pair captain Ben Stokes and head coach McCullum.

San Miguel Beer became the first team to reach the semifinals of the PBA Governors' Cup, but coach Jorge Gallent is bracing for many pitfalls in the latest stop on the championship road. 'Nothing comes easy now,' Gallent said after the Beermen put an end to the campaign of the Converge FiberXers with a 121-105 win in the quarterfinals on Sunday at Smart Araneta Coliseum. And for San Miguel to succeed moving forward, it will look to the likes of Vic Manuel to continue delivering big numbers as he has done since June Mar Fajardo was sidelined with an MCL injury.
