Time, apparently, is 'the enemy'. It's cut short, so Tim, also a little fellow.

PS Thanks for taking the lads.chaps stuff OK!

Tnx Malone,

Forgot all about tim..e being the enemy. Obviously I knew Tim etc.

Next 78, 11A: Love to fly in alternate directions a bit. ANS: Smidgeen

I get all except love. Parse please.

Isn’t it SMIDGEON so love - O - and midge in S and N

Tnx candledave.

You are correct....need to be more careful when writing down answers!!

Next, 79, 29A: Apparently half-cut duke offers port. ANS: Ostend.

I get all bar half-cut. Parse please.

Osensibly means apparently - and the word is half cut, Osten(sibly)

Sorry, that should have been 'Ostensibly means... ' (though I expect you realised that).

Tnx malone,
I was platying around with osten by half, but got nowhere.

Colmm, you're welcome. I've always liked the word 'ostensibly', so I saw that immediately.

PS I saw my missing 't' reappeared in your 'playing'.... If that was deliberate well done!
