Too easy. Anyway, knowing you, I thought you'd jovially respond with "You can't always get what you want!"

Okay, some get solved quickly, and some last a day or longer. For next week, can you Appalamma or b_A take a crack at posting a 10-clue set?

Oh no, I know that bw posts cryptics. I did mean b_A. It will be nice if other participants post a set once in a while.
