My only quibble is that, at 5A, spouse and espouse both derive from essentially the same root.

I also understood ‘so’ = ‘very good’ along the same lines (a kind of disposable introduction to a sentence; see also ‘okey doke’, ‘right-o’ etc).

“Very good, let’s move on… ?

Just a thought.

27ac is ARCHERY, an Olympic sport where even if you score a gold (the centre of the target) you are not certain to get a gold medal.

I think perhaps ‘ginger’ 2dn refers to the colour/type of a cat rather than its name. I used to have a ginger tom many years ago.

A slight typo in 22ac, you have missed the AT in the wordplay.
