33a seems to have a W that isn't clued? In the middle?

Is w an official abbreviation for with? I haven't come across that.

It’s listed in Chambers, so I believe it’s allowed

I have a full grid and the theme but need to do a bit more work on the instruction.

A couple I can't parse, but the one which is really annoying me is 28a. I'm assuming that the first word generates 3 (4 less 1) letters at the start but I'm damned if I know what word it is. I'm pretty sure I know what the second, unchecked letter is, but I don't like guessing. Any hint would be gratefully received.

The third letter is omitted from the part of the answer generated by the first word of the clue, if that helps

Thank you, Dodgepot. That narrows down the options.
