Item of clothing, also a slang term meaning 'pockets'

@Phil 10000
Both 5a and 19d parse perfectly correctly.
I won't comment on 5a, as that would give away the answer...
but re 19d: an ore is any naturally occurring mineral or aggregate of minerals.

Hi Elle
It just strikes me that the 'not I' should refer to the weapon, rather than anything else, given the structure of the clue.

I don't see a problem with it, Phil.
I think it's quite a clever clue!

It seems to have had some folk thinking.....

14A Australia hadn’t thrown test; England missing bowler -perhaps? End of story! 3,5,4 I have .N., T.A.S, .H.T
It’s my last one to go in but I haven’t a clue! What’s the definition?

Definition - End of story!

@cymro

end of story !

End of story is the definition.

The definition is "End of story!"

Yell, if you want the answer and the parsing....

Hi Cymro
It is a fantastically intricate clue. I reckon the fact that most of us have managed to parse it suggests that we're starting to get to grips with some of the setter's quirks (after nearly a year!). All your letters are correct. If you still haven't got it, try inserting an apostrophe.
