Hi Liari, I thought this would be good and it was- on all counts! The cream goes a long way down but up there for me were 1a, 9a (brilliant!), 16a, 25a, 1d, 8d (clever def) and 12d. I wondered whether 4d would work with any other clue number? Thanks so much for reappearing!

Thanks Liari, a nice start to the day! Entertaining surfaces throughout and a mix of very satisfying constructions, particularly 4d and 12d... 2d, 15a, 16a, 17d, 23a...

Thanks, Liari. 12d made me giggle.

Glad this puzzle is available for all to experience! Every clue is a gem, but the standouts are surely 1a, 9a, 16a, 4d, and 18d.

Hi Liari. I have seen your grids in the guardian and great to see you here. This was great fun. My favourite among many great clues was 9a. Also loved 1a, 10a (for completely, and fairly, bamboozling me for a while) and 25a

Very many thanks for sharing, Liari! Much appreciated!!
