...and 30a raised a few choice **!!**s (best I could come up with was 'Kaffir lime', but it isn't in Chambers).

Thanks Drxx, kaffir's what I got too for the lime, from the Sydney Morning Herald of all places - that well-known authority on the CA 😂

I wondered about key lime for a while, but as with many of these I didn't wonder for long when the answer is sorted. Some of them seen very hmmm.

Yes, brendan/granama1 - I was torn between hmmm and tears of laughter quite a few times (but it was definitely fun, for the most part).

Struggling with 12a. Which is Kalidasa work perhaps with Hindu diety set by a station. Unless I have a crosser wrong. Thanks in anticipation.

Im not on the setters wavelength at all here. I think i have a few answers, but absolutely no idea how the single letter arises. eg 10a, 30a, 36a, 6d.

lumen - Kalidasa is a playwright and poet, you need ''a station'' to give the necessary homophone (13 letters for the real word).

I have just had a pdm (thanks to google) having filled the nw corner without having a clue what was going on - this may give me half a chance!
