Really stuck on three clues:

5D. Figure in time past slowly in the end - T?e?t? Looks like twenty but why?
26A. Vacillate, toying with third and fourth of December D?t?e? Looks like dither but why?
19D. Unfortunate jingle, perhaps - A??? R?? No idea!

Help!

5 T(ime) WENT slowlY
26 anagram THIRD and 4th of decEmber
19 AD VERSE (groan)

5d T(ime)-went-(slowl)Y

Ah, yes- thanks. One final query : 22A. Take great pleasure in routine. It is surely groove but I can' t really see why. Gr maybe for great but where does pleasure come into it?

Grooving with the guys, perhaps? (I wasn't convinced.)

Groove

enjoy oneself.
"Harley relaxed and began to groove"

Thanks, Mamya. I thought, belatedly, that it might have something to do with groovy .
