3D - answer to clue 1 without something given by the answer to clue 8.

Makes an abbreviation.

Just 9a to go now! Did you solve it, ChrisE? Any hints, anybody?

Think of a kind of seat. Add a 1 to it and you get an 8

I only have the first word of 17d and the long 15a to get. But I have w...t for 20a. Is that right because I'm drawing a blank on what that could be?

Your letters are right for 20a, but (4,1) would be a fairer enumeration.

OK I've got it but I'm going to have to think about the parsing of that a bit more. Thanks ChrisE.

FOI 8a.
LOI 17d

COD and possibly of the year so far 18a. But there were plenty of good clues in this. Thanks Paul for a tough challenge this week.

Not a favourite of ours. Far too much time looking up clues and hints.

15a very ingenious clue. Didn't like many of the others.

Can someone explain parsing of 18.

Thank you.
