Cryptic crossword No 2,356

Overall a fun solve, although some of your leaps left me behind ... Faves included 4d, 7d and 12a. Thanks!

Thanks Flashling, my faves here were 11a, 12a, 20a, 26a, 20d & 23d. You've asked for feedback, so, spoilers …

Thanks Flashling. I enjoyed the 2/3 of this I could do and revealed the other 1/3. See reply for more. Favourites: 11a, 12a, 14a and 15d. Spoilers …

Thanks for the puzzle Flashling. Not the first of yours I tried, apologies for not leaving comment on your first couple of offerings which I did have a crack at, but I've enjoyed seeing you getting bitten by the setting bug and rather enjoyed this one. Favourite clues included 14a (smooth), 22a (neat), 2d (nice), 4d (neat) and 25d (neat)...

Sorry to be slow commenting, flashling. I solved this a couple of days ago and have been wondering how detailed a comment to make. On reflection, I think Fez has done most of the heavy lifting. I also found this one pretty difficult and ended up with a number of reveals. Likes inc 11a, 12a, 24a, 4d and 23d. Thanks. PM
