I of course meant DGRS, sorry but my brain is mashed.

Not all of the two-clue entries are composed exclusively of those two answers (as demonstrated by your problem).

jbird54, I now realise that the hint you have given me for 21 down relates to the first part, whereas it is the second part which I need.

0pt0 - sorry, I'll try again!
21D part 2 - answer is a Scots words for 'shelter'. The first word of the clue is in Latin...
I also missed 2D. Wordplay cycles a word meaning 'by'. Personally don't like the definition to this clue, which relates to music. I think the answer would last several bars, not be part of one!

Is the entry at 8a in the BRB? I have an E and a P in it.

Thanks Jordan - why doesn't the preamble tell you that?
