Well I usually like Paul, but I found this difficult. I have finished it with some help fr0m DanWord, mainly to confirm my guesses where I had trouble parsing the answer. There are a number of answers I still can't fully parse. Though I had no trouble with 11ac. I'd never heard of 8ac. But I knew the opera for 5d
I have had a very busy day and need to get to bed so I won't go into detail here.
FOI 18ac, LOI 16d Because I had the wrong answer for 8d which threw my answer for 26ac. COD none
