Brendan and Geeker, you will like the letters in rows 5 and 11.

Thanks, akg!
But it's the full board: look also at rows 3 and 13!

Sad to say I didn't notice it until your post.

Rows 3, 5, 11 and 13 also explain why unusual words like 5 and 24 were needed.

I think I won't bother. FOI was ROMAN (nose) @9a, but crossers seem to indicate that it's wrong!

....and the word at 13a doesn't make sense!

thanks jono

17a and some hints on rows means i'm now making progress. it does seem like a puzzle that's more fun to set than solve, though! who had previously heard of 24?

OK, finished. No fun at all! Even OneLook didn't know 5d.
