Yes that was a fun way to spend half an hour or so. Got held up a bit by 5d which i thought was a horrible word, but in the end it was the only thing that fitted with the crossers. I have always wondered what the source of the 4d alliterative phrase was. 8a made me laugh, (reminded me of Barry Cryer on Clue), and 11a was very clever with all the anagrams. Glad the weather here has turned cooler, it makes thinking about puzzles easier. Have a lovely day.
