I'm happy with the definition (19d) it's the answer I have a problem with. I fear I may have 23a wrong, which is sending me astray.

22d. Bouncy creature? Mali surname?

28a. Shortened answer associates with Ant? If so cannot parse

Any help appreciated.

Thank you, Chrise, for explaing 19d. I rather like the clue now tgat I understand it. Also, I forgot to say in my last post thank you Jono for giving the vital hint for 8a.

And thanks to Chrise. Lots of one word definitions hidden today. I parsed 8 as 1,4,3. Only the patter changing.

Cave paintings came up. Maybe I got the wrong bouncy creature.

Oh, I get it. Duh! Should always look at Google search results for more than 5 seconds to rule out confirmation bias. Figured cave paintings were in Sahel.
