Hi PS

I'm disappointed that Staghound isn't right, but I've got the answer now to 19A and see the anagram.

I've got an answer for 21d but can't parse first two letters.

I've done what you suggest about 5ac. I think it is unfair to give coop a capital letter - very misleading!

I looked up a word that fits for 5ac and then googled it. I'm very surprised to find it is a synonym for pilfer.

I've got 7d, though don't like the clue.

I looked up Scots for vomit, applied the word play, and have now looked up my answer to see that it is a beer, made in the Netherlands.

Just three left:
25d I've got T?B?R, but this depends on my answer to 24ac being right.
3d I've got N?M??
and 12ac I've got ?R???N
Can I have a hint for the latter?

Thanks goodness for the reduced temperature today. Down from 30C to 20C and heavenly rain for the garden.

Brendan I did spot the vegetable links

All those letters are correct.

12A is the easiest on your list, it's an inclusion.
3D is pretty good clue I got it from mythology though.
25D is pretty easy too if you know the German for over.

Maybe you need a Yogi to help you with 22D

I don't see how you got the third letter for 21 without the first two!
25 King Edward is a variety
3 the flyer is an insect
12 I don't think I've ever eaten one, but it would be a bit spiny!

Yogi was a hint to the other poster in between our posts.

21D if you got the first 2 letters the 3rd should have arrived at the same time "butter's occasionally"
