Help please with 24ac. Brassiere proffers bouncing BB busts. RA?DS. I'm thinking 'raids' but don't see why.

Can anyone explain the wordplay for 29D?

"...chips for the bard"

Neither Chambers or Brewer's gives anything useful.

Hi Syzygy - I've just switched on. Quince is the carpenter (chips!) in Midsummer Night's Dream.

Thanks AJT.

Had browsed M.S.N.D. but didn't get the connection.
