Very enjoyable puzzle with the usual rhyming couplet. COD 7d which for some reason appealed to me. Slowed down at the end with the SE Corner, but it all made sense eventually. Some clever clues all round. Thank you, Everyman.

Yes, it was a fun puzzle, thanks to Everyman.
Started off rapidly, slowed down but finished in a reasonable time.
FOI 2d, LOI 19 (due to corrected typo, not difficulty).
Lots of good clues, COD 25 narrowly followed by 22, 17 and 24.
Solvers of yesterday's Prize will smile at one clue here!

QLast one neededis 19d. I
I have ?i?a?s
Are these letters correct.

Yes, your letters for 19D look right

Got it....how blind I was. Good puzzle.

Agree on 7d. Enjoyed it all, liked the rhyming pair which helped enormously. FOI 5a, LOI 10a. COD 25a for me. I liked 27a as well and the 12a homophone was neat. All in all its set me up for the day. Best wishes and keep safe.

All done bar 22d .Can not see parsing and have two possible answers grrrrr hints welcome Am a little dubious re the plural in 15 d too.

Chrisxxxx, 22d is a description of a tea set (5,4), minus a word for a facial feature.

Many thanks for very good hint I still had to work a little for answer .

Oops, I just checked, and the description is actually one word. (9)
