Good day all
I've just managed to finish, after a two-hour struggle (interrupted with Olympics)
Although I have an answer for 19d (nasty) I still don't get the wordplay. I liked 22a.
Off to get lunch and finish watching the Triathlon. Go Team GB

Not only Olympics `wasting` time - I`ve been making that little man run and jump!
I hoped you`d explain 19d, Jazzgirl! I`ve got the right answer I think.
Stuck on 5d and the first part of 18ac. OK otherwise.

What little man are you on about? and now the ice cream van is giving you answers. I am seriously worried about you .lol.
Oh those amazizng Brownlee brothers. What a fantastic finish.
re 18a think cricket and Nottingham.
I bet chrisg will help us with the wordplay on 19d as I still don't get it.
Off to do some work.....

Hi jazzgirl
N is the SI symbol for Newtons (unit of force). Does this help?

One of the (many) definitions for SIDE is "a pretentious air", which is not a long way from CAMP???
