Ixion - I think 11ac is COMPEND. Totally stuck on unclued words, though

Thx for that

Az=comp(iler)?

doocot is a dovecot in Chambers if that's any help?

compend sounds good too - Chambers - an old summary

I think I've got all the answers to the clued items. Anyone got any idea about the unclued ones?

I have to admit I think it's the height of laziness to have so many unclued answers, most of which aren't even words. I think Azed must have decided to take an early holiday....

ps. I assume the unclued 1 Across must be one of the actual words, as it is referred to by the definition in 21 Across to which the answer is ENLARGED. That's as far as I've got.

A VERY VERY wild guess - could it have something to do with Christmas is coming, the geese are getting fat?
1a could be bloating (see 21a) ??
6d could be greylag??

Fat goose is correct.
for other unclued think of the next line - coins in hats.

Where does the "analyse pavan to a toad" come in? I have more unchecked letters than that even after filling in 1a and 6d
