Couple of sticky ones in the latest Eye.

6 Down: Wind's a prominent feature with nothing on, all right (7) _H_N_O_

All I can think of is Chinook. It fits but I can't parse. Am I right and, if so, please explain.

25 Across: Unpaired blokes having time for a bit on the side (7). _D _ _ _ N _.

Can't fathom this one at all.

Thanks.

Re: 25 Across. Could it be oddment?

chin - prominent feature
o - nothing
ok - all right .

odd men t?

a chinook is a wind

CHIN O OK (a wind)
ODD MEN T

Thanks Trevor. Much appreciated. Oddment popped into my head the second after I'd pressed the "send" button.

Indeed, but its a word used used in the Pacific North West of the USA. Cyclops is venturing a bit further afield than normal.
