Thanks, both, for the much-needed proof-reading of that over-hasty blog. The wordplay to 19d did come to me after posting the blog and going out, while in the gym — which may say something about the beneficial effects of exercise on the mind.

Thanks, Jetdoc (and Poins) – another small typo in 25A, Bordeaux’s centre should be DE, I think. Favourite clue, 6D.

Thanks for the blog, jetdoc.

I had the same query as you about 19dn then realised that ‘account’ can be ACC, then it’s ‘milk’ in the sense of ‘exploit’.

I share your thoughts on 21dn: I can’t see anything else going on.

[Small typo in 9ac: you've missed out the T ['what finally'].
