Puzzle completed but I am struggling to parse two answers. I don't want to give the complete answers but would appreciate help from anyone who has done the puzzle.
22ac I have the beginning "B". Then a five letter 'dance music' and a two letter 'party'. I think that it ends in 'O' (ball) but I cannot justify the two penultimate letters (CI). Something to do with the B's starting point. [Definition is TRUMPET-BLOWING]
25ac The answer is reversed in the wordplay. I have OM (second reversed) and A giving OM****A. The missing middle bit (4 letters) should be a 'widow's place'. I know what it should be but cannot find any proof. [Definition is MISCELLANY]
Any hints greatly welcomed.
