Another towards the easier end of the spectrum. I enjoyed 14 which held me up for a while until I realised the English and German words contain the same letters - the clue points nicely at the correct choice.

All done except that I cannot parse 10 down. It may not matter as all the letters are checked, one way or another.

In 10d, the mail is a 3 letter term in Bradfords, backwards, around a 3 letter word for "a". I cannot parse 33a. Other than that, rather a mild puzzle this week.

Indeed, very mild. All done before breakfast is a record for me!

Think 33ac parsing is 5 letter for upset plus 2 letter for existence - the extra letter plus the last letter entered.

Sorry, not the missing letter, that's part of upset. So existence must just be the final letter?

It is two letters of a three letter word for upset (minus the extra letter). This is followed by a three letter word for existence.

Thanks Smithsax

I succeeded in completing this one - it must be very easy!! my strike rate is no better than one in four. No need to trouble Malone this weekend.

Can you help me parse 23d please?

LEVE (archaic alt sp 'lief') is 'dear' + LA(d) all going up.
