Might 45 have also been given with punctuation included?

@chrise: no, sorry, my Nr 7 solution cannot be read either way!
Still struggling with 6 shorties: think I'll have to google hip-hop slang for Ixion's 36......

Try another way of saying "bored"

Oh, yeah: we had that word on this forum some time ago, I now remember: clever boy, ixion!
Five to go..................

Still making no progress on 2, 15 & 33:
maybe I should take a break..................

I've got as far as I ever will, i.e. "finished" but uncertain about some parsing, so will just look forward to the explanations. After all, at midnite it's Grauniad time again.................

Many thanks Les, have a great time

Thanking you ,Les- love your 22a

@Chrise - I don't think any punctuation would affect 45

I might not be referring to a recent conflict -or maybe I am...

Glad you're enjoying it, I'm off to the airport now guys, got an appointment with a mountain.
Take care all, Les40

@ bbm2: just realized while lying in bed how good your clue is for 45! In fact punctuation would rather ruin it, wouldn't it?! Only hope my other guesses for the last few difficult 3-letter ones are just as fortunate: I rather doubt it-- e.g. Les's 2d still bothers me: could there almost be a connection between the right solution here and your 45d, if you see what I mean? Different context, but from the wording, I mean. Perhaps I'm just wandering down the garden path, though.
