Cryptic crossword No 3,330

Hi Baldur, thanks for this puzzle - I thought it was great with a good range of clue types, entertaining surfaces and clever constructions. I particularly liked 6a, 20a, 25a, 3d, 13d.

Thanks Baldur. Despite stumbling with 7a, 15a (no chance with that one), and 16d I enjoyed this quite a bit with my top picks being 7a, 3d, 4d, 5d, 8d, 18d, and 24d. Nice work overall.

Good fun, thanks Baldur. I managed the bottom half reasonably well but found the top very tricky, particularly the NW. Had to reveal 2d, half of which was a NHO. Are you going to tell me this was the easier one you’ve been planning 🤔 😃? Favourites: 6a, 7a, 1d, 9d (great example of the genre), 17d (neat) and 18d (ditto).
