Thenk you (again) Caravaggio. I now have it all
done (again)
Success!

You're welcome, flipper2law!

Lovely to see your name and input again 'John (from Arran)' sensibility returns!!

Finished! It took about 4 hours. Just couldn't get into it, but was helped immensely by a 10 minute burst of inspiration - "cracking" 2D, 18A, 4D & 13D. 1D was almost impossible so had to resort to the big Chambers dictionary!
Favourite clue was 15A.
Crossword now safely in the post.

Your perseverance is admirable, Nimrod. 1d wasn't a word which instantly sprang to mind for any of us!

A bit late to this thread but only just found this forum, usually bounce answers off my mum but we are both stuck on

19d Crazed artist to make an offer
Have ?A?I?
I think the answer is MANIC as that fits with crazed but how does it fit with the rest of the clue?

does rabid fit.

Not manic, if I remember rightly. The artist would be a member of the Royal Academy. The offer then leads you to a mad dog.

Thank you both for your help.
