scorpiojo

Quite understandable, given the theme of this crossword. I STLL don't understand the link between pussy (or pus-sy) and the answer.
Sorry to be so dense.

Pog

Something filled with pus..

This is the original clue

11 d) Boil the rice, only 50% of which is needed during party (In square brackets!)

and I feel you look up your answer in Chambers, you will find it define as the first word...

Thanks again, Scorpiojo. I don't have access to Chambers, and so was unaware of this meaning.

Many thanks Kirky
I've now finished, but had to change the answer I had for 8ac, which was Bay Area.

Thanks Scorpiojo
I now see where the t comes from. I'd assumed the two referred to the number of starters and wasn't a starter itself.

Pog.
Google Chambers on line dictionary and put in the word you had for your answer. The explanation is right at the bottom, no 12.

Stuck on 2d. If I have the across letters right, I can think of only one word that fits, and it makes no sense, unless there was a famous astronaut called Weeper.
