13a is one of my favourite ever clues.

A very fun puzzle, thanks for sharing. Definitely agree that 13a is a top-tier clue, especially considering it's part of a multi-clue pun.

I half solved this last night and spend much of my dreamtime trying desperately to remember 13a - which I thought I’d clued! Well I certainly wish I had. It’s the highlight of a great puzzle, with further favourites including 4a, 20a, 26a, 3d, 4d, 5d, & 25d. Thanks Chopin, and take a bow!
