The last letter of 21a held me up for ages too. On the whole I thought it was a really good puzzle with some very clever clueing.

Glad it wasn't only me! The right answer is one of my favourite things, too.
You're a real trail blazer Les. Do you dream crosswords?

Excellent, Les, well done. Not sure I understand all the triple defs, but near enough.

I've printed it off, Les, and am looking forward to giving it a go tomorrow. Thanks in anticpation (in case I don't feel as grateful after getting stuck on it!)

Hi Les
You really must get out and mow the front lawn.
What will people think
LOL THEA

If Les is anything like me, he mows the lawn whenever it is dry enough - mine was last done about 10 days ago (I may have trouble finding my way out to the road)

I don't do lawn mowing, I have flagged the front (very nicely) in Indian stone and laid a patio at the back, I will get back into gardening when I'm much older.

Anyway, stick around, I'm 5 minutes off publishing the triple teaser wordplay explanations.
back very soon....

WORDPLAY EXPLANATIONS FOR THE TRIPLE TEASER.

The forward slash / separates each of the three parts of the clues.

Ok, I've done it quick so hope it all makes sense.
Fire away with any question marks and i'll try and explain.

Got 3 wrong (3a,1 & 19d) but it was still great to do! Thanks again, Les!
