Enjoyed this - got several of them quickly but had to work harder with the rest. Didn't crack them all (I can at least say I knew about onion sellers on bikes, but not that they were Johnnys!) but they all made sense and were well clued when I looked at the notes.
Another fine puzzle. My favourites were 16a, 28a, 1d, 5d and 11d. One small point, I thought it might have been better to use another synonym for 'end' in 25a as it appears in the solution. Like Sheepish, I knew of the pedlars but didn't know what they were called. One to try and remember. Thanks Laccaria.
