Hi all - Happy Feast of Stephen!
I got woken up by aftershocks numbers 7840 and 7841, so thought I'd do Saturday's cryptic. Thanks to all the helpful training on this forum, I can now actually finish the things!
I'm a bit unsure of one answer though:
An act Erin develops easily (2,1,6)
I have: In a canter ?
Sigh - #7842. It's going to be another shaky night!

thought "at a canter" was the better phrase, but could only find one 't'! Am I looking in the wrong place?

at a canter is the usual expression...but the anag does indeed give "in a canter"
