Hi FemmeNoire, I’m with you on the use of very. In fact ‘little’ isn’t really necessary, “Stated aim weight gained” would do it

Enjoyed/ing this. Needed a bit of dictionary help with 24a. Still can't do 25a which others don't seem to have struggled with. I've got a couple of possibilities but they don't parse well and given the rest of today, I think I'm off-piste. FOI 10a. COD 1d. Unless 25a unexpectedly witty!

In my home counties part of the world, 3d is used to mean restless - can't sit still.

My LOI wa 25a, and 22a made me chuckle.

Quite enjoyable overall!

Lucy,

For 25a think of a person around the time of JC.

Apologoes if the clue isn't wanted!

Oh! I've just seen 25a - very satisfying.

Thanks Smot, I think our messages crossed. A bit like going to the doctor and your symptoms go away, sometimes once I ask the question I can then see the answer!

:-) I know exactly what you mean!
