I failed to parse trist and dear (also put off by d = pence).
Did anyone else notice the numbering error at the head of the puzzle.
2092 instead of 2096 although the latter was correct in the address for entries?
First in was ‘raised pastry’ although I had no knowledge of this culinary term.

Just scroll down until you see “Crosswords” on the right-hand side in the “On this site” list, click on it and you will come to a page with “Crossword Archive Search”. You can then find all the Azeds your heart desires.

I didn’t realise there were as many as one god/s. :)

Surprised no one rising to my “there is only one god” bait :)

This in turn made me notice that your analysis doesn’t mention 13 (also 23 and 32). I hope someone can help, because trying to remember 13 is going to drive me nuts.

I agree about 31 – my favourite – second favourite 4.
