Thanks, syzygy and Sunray. This was quite good fun, but I think I spoiled it for myself by misreading the preamble. I got the grid filled easily enough but struggled to see the 'true nature'. I kicked myself later.

Sweet. Thanks, syz.

Thanks syzygy.
Looked tough but was simple enough once you got answers to those strange clues.

Thank you Syz, that was fun.

I particularly liked 36.

Thanks again syzygy, a gentle introduction to a Monday morning. Like kt17 I also like 36a, raised a chortle.
