I certainly had never heard of “guttate” and did an electronic anagram search for that. Couldn’t parse 2dn, and 13ac took ages for me to get – my first thought on “bombardier” was a beetle.

Sun representative in Egypt = Ra + d(ied). Rad is slang for excellent, wonderful etc = capital.

The old blog doesn’t give the answer to 28 across, which I think must be “red”, but I don’t know why. Oh, how I miss being in step with the Indy. Any chance of a quick link to the old blogs, and opening them up for new comments?

I found this quite easy to start with but got a bit bogged down with all the clues that referenced things I’d never heard of (Mutter, Giusto, Bombardier tractors etc). It was almost impossible to get these until you’d got enough crossing letters to guess the word, which made finishing the puzzle off a bit of an effort.
