Cryptic crossword No 683

Talofa Lava and good morning from down under. I hope you enjoy my most recent grid! Comments and feedback warmly welcomed as always!

Nice one, suka. Just watched this being solved on cryptic sunday and there were a lot of really nice touches in an overall cracking puzzle. Big ticks for 6a, 10a, 15a/18a, 17a (though not sure if the capitalised L is an oversight?), 7d, 20d, 23d. Really enjoyed participating in the solve - and so did everyone else by the look of it. Hope you get to see the vid - feel-good moment coming up for you when you do. Thanks. PM

Nice one Suka - unfortunately I missed the live-solve, but some really good stuff in here. I especially liked 15a/18a, 2d, 5d, and 7d.

Great stuff, just the ticket this morning to fill the gap after I finished the Guardian surprisingly quickly! I loved the thematics especially 15a 18a 😁 One non-spoilery comment (as it's in the clue, not the solution): the abbreviation for millilitre is 'ml', all lower case and no 's'. One spoilery comment in the Reply. Thanks!
