I found this hard, and rather less fun than Picaroon usually is.

Where would you like hints?

I thought it was quite fun if a bit easy for a prize. Which only goes to show (once again) how tastes and wavelengths vary with cryptics. Part of the joy, I suppose!

I agree Rogissimo - bit easier than usual for a prize puzzle, though I had to google 18D as it was a new one to me.
