Trevor. Thanks for giving the two links to see the cake Rosalind made. My computer expertise does not extend to doing that! Now that you have returned maybe you will post again more often.

Meanwhile I am stuck on 20 A `Endless supply etc`

hello Mondran
Endless supply, plenty for a whale.
supply = cache (minus the e)
plenty = a lot
this gives another name for the Sperm Whale)

I've just checked in and noticed chrisg's parsing of 7a. I had used the wordplay differently: said (spoken) placed outside "softly" (P)
It still give the same answer though ;)

Hi Everyone, please can somebody give an alternative clue to 16a. It's my last one and I just can't get it. Thanks.

hi torvic
16a is a palindrome (reads the same "any way"(decorate again)
