..including 5A

Sorry, you're right. For some reason, I had 29ac marked as a pair, when it obviously isn't.

I'm stuck on 1a, 12a, 14a, 17a and 23a. I can guess what most of these might be, purely because nothing else will fit, but I can't work out what the "other halves" might be. Any pointers?

Ixion, in tables of sports results, L represents games lost.

True enough Daw...that's good enough for me, don't remember coming across it in cryptics before though.

1a Remove "k" from prefers
12a Half of a country
14a Think Sloane Ranger

Thank you,Ixion. I'll get working...and thinking.

Go two of them: still struggling with 1a, 17a & 23a.

It's about time I intervened to apologise. The clue to 2D is indeed wrong. As Eric Morecambe once nearly remarked: all the right letters are there but not necessarily in the right order. Thanks for your perseverance. You (or at least some of you I hope) might like to know that, editor permitting, Partners III is in preparation.

Thanks Crucible for taking the time to come here and clarify 2d.
