Ah, well GK, The clue at 3d is a touch of lateral thinking for the Def and a real Doh! moment. Chris's 78d is one that you need to know something about Linford Christie which i didn't know myself when Chris sent it in, but it is fair if you know this about LC, hope that helps

Think I may have yours now; still feeling very ignorant about L.C. despite googling!

Hi GK,

I can't give the answer but I'm sure Chris won't mind if I give you an indirect esoteric hint.

"Have you seen the work of Thomas Heatherwick?"

OK, think I've got the lot now. Up to you whether you want to see them, Les! No obligation! Am going for yet a

(what is wrong with my computer?)-nother meal first, anyway (social duties). CU later, maybe!

Just finished. What a treat. Great clues from everyone.

I've really enjoyed this - thanks to all (especially Les), but I've ground to a halt in the west (29 and 30dn, 42, 46 and 55ac - and also the 3dn from Les that has troubled others). Is it possible for anyone to give a subtle hint on one of the ones in the west to get me going again?

Think about the last 3 words of 29 dn!

29d (which will give you initial letters) - "free" is a verb not an adjective and there is an anagram involved.....

Chris: I can't guarantee anything I say is correct as my version has not been corrected, but I suggest:
30d Think Greek drinking!
42a Def. senseless
46a Who pays alimony? Synonym for "to fudge"."Correction" in an almost painful sense.
"Texas style" etc:play with the letters of "raw deal" (but I don't get the rest myself: may be wrong)
And thanks for eventually teaching me a lot about LC in your antepenultimate clue (can't type numbers for the mo)!
And one more last word: assuming you finish, make time for G (Orlando) today: I found it quite challenging & original!
And to everybody: enjoy something that will help your digestion!
