Ok! A niggling problem:
4D is correct, but I have EARSHOT for 32A which throws off 4D(32A must be wrong)
And I can't see 35D ( BA?S) and what's wrong with 2D ( CENTRODE ) ?
Sorry for pestering and thanks much!

I do not doubt you! The last Dumpynose was easier...I enjoyed the anagrams and was happy to see most of them quickly! Looking forward to more like that one! Thanks again!
