Thanks K - I had admiral instead of general, which made some of the other clues iffy too!! Hopefully everything will fall into place now!

All done now - 28d filled in wrongly set me back ages!!
11a is a brilliant clue - had the answer and it took me ages to fathom out "why"

All done but don't understand the wordplay in 30d (where does AC/DC come into it?) and 1a (stall = untruthful?)
Grateful for any explanations.

Sorry that wasn't very clear. Tall = untruthful and AC/DC = bi, OM = Order of merit

I have 7d (definition farmers) but not sure how the word play works? I see stan [neats (cows) upset without the "e"] but not the hard drug bit?

Right so far with stan - inside 'sore' = hard, and 'ice' = slang term for illegal drug(s).
