I enjoyed this with its very inventive surfaces. My favourites were 1a, 11a, 14a, 5d, 17d (Having done that but fully clothed ;-)) Thanks

Good to get in early with the theme😄 I enjoyed this a lot Ark, thanks. Particular faves were 1a (my COTD), 10a, 11a, 12a (clever def), 22a, 30a, 2d, 6d and 25d. Beaten by 13d. Were there quite a few anagrams?

Thanks Ark, I thought this was very good. 16d is brilliant - I'm a sucker for scatology! - and I also liked 1a, 12a, 22a and 5d. 14a and 20a maybe a tad clunky for me but that's just personal taste.

Another very enjoyable solve, Ark. Creative constructions and some nice surfaces in here. Faves inc 11a, 12a, 15a (COTD), 1d, 3d, 8d, 16d and 17d. Thanks. PM
