Hi ChrisE To be honest I am not confident about many of my answers but thoroughly enjoying it.

I am, however, completely confident about 10d lol

Indeed emrach - it's one of yours!

Thanks to your help I now only have the baffling 24ac left.

I had CHEETA for 25ac and TANNI (as in Grey-Thompson) for 32ac - both reasonable answers, I thought.

Finished!

Lots of great clues, but I must make special mention of Bullfrog's 21ac for getting so much misdirection into such a short clue.

Reasonable (and I particularly like Cheeta) but wrong. lol I still have a lot to get 11d is driving me nuts but will, of course, keep trying.

Hope this discussion isn't against the rules!!! We actually haven't given any clues so hopefully haven't upset anyone. Have a good day

I think we got away with it. Have a good day yourself.

Excellent golf yesterday, but it's raining today and I don't see any point in getting wet if I don't have to.

With 11dn you need to pick the meaning of "bass" which best fits with "organ"

Steady! You nearly had me reaching for the Caps Lock....

Thanks for the kind comment about 21a chrise - maximum misdirection was my goal!

Oh, and I'm all done bar aristo's infuriating 24a. I have to admit that I enjoyed this JE rather more than the last - I found that one hard to connect with.

Just before posting this I took another look at 24a and I have it! It's a word I've come across before, but as far as I can see this exact spelling isn't in Chambers.

Hiya all,

I have the Solution page and AB has sent through the wordplay file to me again.
When would you like it posting, maybe tomorrow night or Sunday???
I don't know what's happening with the hints idea yet, maybe Rosalind and the girls would like to suggest and start something off in a new thread, I'm gonna be out again later so it's up to you guys.
I'll log in tomorrow from work if I get time.

Have a good night all.
