Evening all. Sorry for the delay, only got WiFi voucher from reception an hour ago.
I've worked out all but 3 of the entries, so could the following people run their parses past me and I will check back in later . Some really clever clues to judge up to now.
Skywalker post 3. Ritz?
Paul post 14. Canary aria?
Mattrom post 24 ?

Les: I believe Ritz is intended to be a homonym of writs.

Well, it IS a homonym of course. I mean I think that's how the clue works.

I thought Paul might be referring to compelling someone to "sing like a canary"- give evidence.

Allegedly - homonym indicator
consume - sup
a drug -E
horse, I hear - neighing
keeping up appearances - definition, subpoeaning is keeping up (the number of court) appearances
