Hello EVers,
I started off quite well, solving clues more or less in clue order. Came to a crunching halt in the SE sector, but sorted after a while! Then spotted a "string" of letters that helped. However I think it was a rather sneaky title as it is only partially "Down Under"!

thank you very much kettledrums. I would never have thought of it . Brilliant.
Ruth didn't just test-solve it, she also practically wrote half the clues! I was planning to provide a full citation and thanks to all of my helpers and test-solvers in a mini-blog-comment-post-thing once the solution is revealed over at fifteensquared.net, and of course thanks to the editor for giving me such a swift debut.

I did also appear on the Uni Challenge match this week. Sadly a loss, though against a tough team who could well go on to win, and hopefully I didn't do too badly!
one more answer to clue 35 ac . Is the answer nie? If so what is the reason behind it
35ac should it read
Shakespeare duke lost fine old not very far away.
Duke (Shakespearean word for fist)= Nie(f)
many thanks Slaney I should have known that, but i am afraid I am getting a bit long in the tooth these days.
Dun it! Very devious Ruthrobin. Didn't think of the lower place as thought it was only commercial and didn't think 'it' stopped there. Showing my iggerence again.
Delighted Devadolly. The 15 squared blog will undoubtedly agree with you and suggest I took quite a bit of licence with the question of starting and stopping points.
Well, stared at the grid for days now, the second of the two is still not shouting out! I'm afraid DocHH, that not even your guidance is helping. Perhaps a glass or two tonight may assist but am throwing in the towel for now!

Look for an 8 letter run beginning with the last letter in 38a.

Also bear in mind Ruthrobin's comment on my & devadolly's concern about whether the second place actually qualifies.
Thanks K - now got it but I must admit my ignorance of this particular location - hangs head in shame!
