Hi Trialnerror - no, it isn't, but strangely enough I gave this as a clue earlier in this thread, but I was told it confused - however, it's nearly there.

Thanks...Hmm. But "ODOUR" is good for 9A, yes?

AAAH! 5D! I see the light!

Hi Trialnerror - Glad I didn't confuse you. Yes, it is odour - In a posting last night Ixion said that pen and ink was a rhuming cockney term - stink.

Yeah, I was tearin' me Barnet out till me Abercrombie and Fitch put me in the right. Problem was, I didn't quite see where the de-anagrammed extra fitted in. Now I've got a problem with 15A and 19D, as none of the anagram/missing-word initials seem to add up to a word that fits. Heigh-ho! This is one of those where I take minutes to fill in most of it, hours to finish off the final six or seven.

Don't want to give too much away and spoil your 'fun' - but what initial letters do you have so far for 15ac and 19d?

No, I think I cracked them. It works if I, er, ALTERED my choice and kicked out the CLERICS...
Now I just got the 24's to do. Blimey, this is a bit easier than all that Shakespeare stuff. By the way, have they accepted "VALARIE" instead of "VALERIE"? Must check...

Ixion checked yesterday - it was Valerie

Just doesn't add up, that. Anyway, back to 84. Just one left now, if 24D has something to do with Real Audio files...

- your Pot looks better than the Part I took from 1D - still leaves me with the same letters for 15A/19D which give me answers without any Eureka moment - is there a Eureka moment to be had?
