Special Instructions: Tidying up some puzzles I set or started prior to Boatman's course and a lot of other learning! So there will be things that definitely could be improved, but wanted to get a few 'out there'! All feedback very welcome!

Liked 18a, 29a and 10a. Kray brothers. Did you know that. Is that what criminal is doing? Thanks.

Thanks Guinevere, faves here are 18a, 1d, 9d & 22d. As you've implied elsewhere you'd welcome detailed feedback, spoilers ...

Hi Guinevere. This is nice, with some really neat ideas and a decent variety of clue types. I liked the definition at 11a, the modern ref at 20d and the construction at 25a. Some quick spoilers thoughts follow:

Sorry Guinevere. I was part way through this and now loads of stuff has changed. Not sure I'm up for tracking changes so will put this one by. As you said, it is an earlier you. I'd agree with Fez's advice - if you've done all this training and had all this advice, put it into a new grid that demonstrates your full flair rather than just getting old ones 'out there' for the sake of it.

Thanks Guinevere. A bit like PM, I started when it was one set of clues and returned 50% into the puzzle to a rather different set of clues! But fair play for making the changes. I found the top half considerably easier than the bottom. You’ve had loads of great feedback so I will just nominate some favourites: 11a, 14a, 25a, the new 30a, 1d, 9d.

Lots to enjoy here, Guinevere - I was particularly taken by 20d (which I see is a re-write - love it!), 14a, 20a, 25a, and 9d.
