A colleague and I normally complete the FT in our 40-50 minute lunchbreak – today we only solved seven clues….

I did like the construction of 12 & 17 – very good.

Although I agree with you that this crossword was technically straightforward, I’m afraid that lamb = cosset, switch = hairpiece, adbuctors = muscles, and bludge = ‘don’t do anything’ were too obscure for us working unaided.
