Hi Tig,
8A As mentioned earlier, think of a place associated with former president Bill - not the Oval Office!
I'm stuck on 22A too, also 3D I have -ILS-I- I know the missing letter is A. Nudge please?

I will have to think again. can't help with 3d as "I'm sorry I haven't a clue" on that either.

Yes Mrs Trellis - sounds like you have it - the last 3 letters are what you have to remember when you use the ATM machine or when you use your bank card

In 22a the missing 2 letters go at the end - rare bewilderment is the defn

Thank you sudokulover and Tig, got it now. Well, I'm finished - although there are one or 2 answers I'm sure of, but not quite why. Which is fitting, considering the last line of thre instructions.
Looking forward to 98.

Until next time, farewell.

Tig, if you're still looking for 22a, I can amplify sudokulover's hint. The answer is a rarely used word for bewilderment. I wouldn't have thought it was a synonym but the OED gives it.
