Have a sense Mr Meyer's cluing this week will confound many, many others as well as me. Solution or suggestions welcomed for:

2 down: Religious ceremony after short journey: (9)

Have ??I??????

25 across: Tough crossword setter oddly enjoying cruise? (8)

Have ?I?T???R

Thanks in advance

2d is spiritual spi (n) and ritual. believe it is listener though can't understand why everybody panics at Mayer. we're here to get on with the crossies and defeat the setters.

The Listener crossword is reputedly the world's hardest - but I had to Google it to check!

Many thanks everybody, the solution for 2 down parses but Listener for 25 across is no doubt correct but I would humbly suggest the clue is a little spurious!

No letters?

A dark... Adult
Guy ... Ribbon (to guy is to rib someone and add the alternate letters in BoOiNg).
