Not just in 1999 - the Welsh regiment have a permanent job for a goat, and a 'Goat Major' to look after it - more here.

Hi Mark - five letter countries could narrow 23D down. 27A has a one-word definition.

She and Darcy B are now teaming up to do some contrived show called "Divas" or somesuch. The clue pairing is quite timely and I thought good. I thought the cheque card was very clumsy and didn't write it in for ages looking for something better.

Agraid I got stuck on a few. Still don't have 27A or 23D - help!

Good stuff again by Dac. I liked the PASSPORT TO PIMLICO anagram. Isn’t “Jenkins” the blonde lady Katherine who sings at the Millennium Stadium before the big games? One reason, actually, why I wasn’t in a hurry to move back to the “New Wembley”
Actually having just checked wikipedia she’s now the official mascot for the Welsh Rugby team apparently.
