Quisling thank you so much for putting me out of my misery.

I work in that particular sector so it should have been obvious, but I am clearly too close to the wood to see the trees!

Happy Sunday all. Back to yesterday's Prize now.

I came to the same conclusion as Mattrom, but wasn’t entirely satisfied, so glad of the confirmation. I’ve never thought of that as being ‘exquisite’ rather than ‘lavish’, which is rather different, but perhaps I’ve been wrong all these years. Not that I’ve had cause to use it - it’s a bit old-fashioned I think.

Good morning….new forum member here but been doing the Everyman for many years.
I can’t parse 21D, expecting an anagram of a word with its head missing? I get the rest but 15D is iffy…!! 6D took some thinking after the answer was clear.

Just worked out 21D….silly me

Equally silly me- I can’t see where merry fits in.

Merry is the anagrind.

Thanks Jono….never heard that word…anagrind….i shall add it to words I only use on a Sunday….like parse..!

You’re welcome, Cumbriansolver. Anagrind (the indicator) and anagrist (the fodder). We have a list somewhere of all these crossword terms and abbreviations.

Hi All,

A very quick solve overall today up until the LOI, 11a which we're still stuck on. Any clues?

Hope you're all having a restful sunday :)

Got it!!
