Only two to get after a real struggle tonight. Feeling very inadequate yet again!
23d Considers verbal techniques (6)
29ac Looks to include introduction of root crops (6)

Bed beckons!

Have finished! Feeling less inadequate now!

Ah, Rina,
I'm still stuck on these two, plus another four.

I'm hoping someone can give me the answers Rina worked out for herself, plus :
24D - Watch for one minnow (4, 4)
?M?L? T????
(presumably SMALL T????) but I can't get it.

24d small timer?

Stevie Gee, Thanks

This answer ties in with a theory I had about 40A.

Not too happy with clue, though. Who on earth ever called a minnow a small timer?

Hi bear,
23rd weighs sounds like ways
29a g(r)azes

Dear Ginge

Many thanks for these.

I can now forget the whole thing - till tomorrow's!

29a "Looks to include introduction or root crops" (6)

G?A?E? I see that GRAZES has been given here as the answer, but I'd originally had GRAPES and am wondering if this could also work?

Any help much appreciated

GAZES is better for "looks" than GAPES, I think. GRAZES is "crops" as a verb, of course.

Thanks chrise, that makes sense
