Featured crossword No 7

Wonderful! Beaten by 18a, 20d and 26d but the rest went in very smoothly. Some lovely bits of invention and new-to-me indicators making this a very refreshing accompaniment to breakfast. Personal selection: 3a, 14a, 21a, 19a(very neat!), 25a, 1d (nice misdirection), 9d (chuckle-raising even though not altogether original), 16d, 22d, & 27d. Thanks Coot.

Excellent addition to the featured slot. I especially liked 1a,16a,21a (fab surface),29a, 1d,6d,8d,23d. And 9d made me smile, even if it been done before (and what is ever truly new)?

Nice job, Coot. I have commented in t'other place and listed my likes there.

Thanks Coot for a great puzzle. I commented on 15-squared and mentioned my favourites there. One question in reply.

Hi Coot. Very enjoyable. Some I really struggled with, but that's part of the fun! Best wishes. Mesnilman!

Fun and funny, thanks Coot. I'll comment at Fifteensquared later but wanted to quickly compliment you and 19a, 26d (my fave), 4d (context dependent, I like 'has' both ways), 7d, 22d, 28a which successfully suckered me in, and my LOI 27a. Thanks again : )

Lovely stuff, mostly steady-away but the NW held out longest. Likes and further commentary over there ->

Very nice surfaces! I especially enjoyed 3a and 19a, and the very succinct 14a. Failed to parse 18a, entered on definition. Thanks

Excellent Coot! Got everything though haven't manage to parse 9D and 20D. Many great clues, my particular favourites were 13A, 28A, 29A, 5D, 6D and 26D though there were ticks for plenty of others too!
