This is good fun so far. I'm enjoying the fact that 40 has two perfectly valid answers (only one of which fits, of course).

Thanks Loge for helping me tie up my loose ends. My favourite clue was 3. Decorate pastry…

Nice to have a easier on. My only issue is that I seem to have 22 reading outwards but not Fromm the innermost ring.
Have I got something wrong?

Smithsax, 22 reads inwards.
My last solve was 26 which had me puzzled for ages.

Hi smithsax,

It’s interesting that the entry for 22 could indeed fit in as you suggest, but this is not allowed by the preamble. The entry runs inward from the perimeter.

Yes I see now it can indeed run both ways. Strange how you can miss things if you start from the wrong place.

All done. I found Qat helpful for mopping up the last few.

Thanks Wintonian, I've parked the Inquisitor at the end game as I'm going around in circles with it...as usual!
I'll see if I can polish off this last three although I think one of them occurred to me while I was grinding my teeth at the i!

Pardon my ignorance, planks, but what is Qat?
