Good morning. I have just about completed this, but naggingly don't have the middle letter for 39 across. Could someone please parse it for me.

3 letter word for beer, move A(bout) to the end. Misprint is the middle letter of craft.

Thanks, Buddy. I had the misprint , but wasn't aware of that meaning for the answer.

Enjoyed this, a definite PDM and some tricky clueing. Thanks Radler

All done but I'm just missing one of the 12 - 42a, can't figure out what the missing 'piece' could be - any hints? A very nice puzzle, thanks Radler

Hi cb,
42d is not one of the 12. I had a few that were possibilities, like this one but ended up with 12 eventually

Sorry, I meant to say I have 8a and 4d in the 12 thematic entries,

Thanks muraria.
I have 'additions' for 1a, 26a, 27a, 33a, 46a & 11d; 'deletions' for 7a, 45a, 3d, 4d & 34d. I thought I'd parsed everything else except 42d (where entry doesn't match definition, surely?) so now v confused - any further hint would be great as its driving me a bit mad (in a good way!)
