Happy Sunday everyone.

I thought this week's everyman was quite easy until I got to 21a which I cannot solve: "Where you might find Adonis ... or bearskins". 5 letters. Hints only please.

I have the three crossers but I don't want to say them yet as they may be a spoiler for other solvers.

8a and 8d? if so, still struggling.

I just arrived at this forum to specifically ask for help parsing 21ac!

Thank you, I see it now. Considering for five weeks I’ve been doing everything local, I should have perhaps thought a bit more locally for the parsing of that clue 🙂

Morning all. That was fun. I liked 21a a lot not so keen on 22d and 24d once you've read primarily that's it. Thought I was going to struggle at first but the solutions sort of dropped into place. Have a good day. Wash those hands.

Where's the definition for 19a? It's not at the beginning or the end, but it doesn't seem to be &lit.
Half of what's seen in seasoner adding a little taste for starters? (3,4)
