Paul has got me totally foxed` on the last 3 - viz:- 24 down a boring thing and everyone's beginning to fret A?RA?E ( only thing I can think of is ABRADE but don't get the parsing): 28 down fellow with affected superiority cleans up ?AS?S and 33 across take in cooked mollusc ???NE (the 1st and 2nd letter of it comprises the 4th and 3rd respectively for 24 & 28) Can anybody throw any light on any of these last 3 clues?
