This was very enjoyable.

However, I do have to report a typo on 18a:

PREPRANDIAL is the correct 11-letter solution.

Do I get a reward?

Looking forward!

Thanks, NealH and MaleficOpus, for blog and comment; there were a few that I got without being able to parse and 2d defeated me completely.

THORN (or þorn) is more than a runic character; it was widely used in old English and the Scandinavian languages and survives in Icelandic today. See http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Thorn_%28letter%29

The usual, accessible, fair and entertaining Quixote puzzle, which I too found on the easy side.

Quite easy, but good as always.

2 down is LOCATION minus C(irc)A.
