Cryptic crossword No 2,193

More info below (spoilers)

Thanks Laccaria. Had to focus to finish this.. (not helped by lazily bunging in the wrong answer for 17 from WP). Lots of fun and misdirection. 7 was fave.

Thank you. I’ve read your extra comments and am looking forward to this one. Can you recommend any venues (in addition to MyCrossword) where newish setters like me can share our puzzles and hopefully receive some feedback? Cryptics take lots of time and effort to make, so any/all interactions are valued. Thanks again.
