Thanks cowboy

Sorry - should have been cowbit

Yes, that was a nice easier one. Sometimes I am very grateful when they are not so tough and this fell nicely being that I have temporarily lost my phone and had locked the laptop away lest I end up doing some work. This is one of the few I have completed without help here and the very first without electronics. Just me and the Bradfords. That made up for it being easier 8-). Of course, this means there are a few guesses in there, but I stopped sending them in 6 months ago and I don't look at the solutions that closely so I will enter 2018 with confidence that I have mastered the Listener....and then fail miserably of course.

Thanks to all for the help here over my first year - target for this year is to see if I can do the same!

Happy New Year from North Norfolk.

Am rather late solving this puzzle ... Straightforward and enjoyable, except for 23 Down which is baffling me !! Looks like OWRES but I am not at all convinced ... A nudge would be very much appreciated. Can only assume I've made a mistake.

I can't be sure primeprospect as I've sent my solution off and chucked out the paper, but that answer sounds right to me.

yes owres for 23d....(anagram of worse) 13a was ores...
Spenser's (eliz poet) word for ores was owres
