The first puzzle I’ve had chance to look at in what appears to have been a tricky batch so far this week, and this one certainly adds to that pile. I managed only one or two answers on my first pass, but managed to pencil in a few possible checking letters and things eventually started to fall into place. A very satisying solve.

Not as entertaining as yesterday’s gem, with rather a lot of anagrams, and little to challenge. One unusual word in 27a and I was not happy with 10a, but straight-forward on the whole.
