Good Afternoon everybody, I'm really stuck on these last few clues, would love some help pleasie.

38a: Chunky - _ O _ Y, 74a: Maladroit - H _ _ _ _ , 57d: Biased - P _ _ _ _ _ _ N,
85a: Pig-farm hands - SWINEN _ _ _ _ , (the 'N' must be wrong, as it would be Swineherds, I have 68d as Thinnest).
38d: Navigational warning light - _ EA _ I _, (I think it's Beacon, but then the 'I' is wrong in 67a - Pelotin).
159a is GYPS, 141d is CHASE, I think, (that one was a bugger)!!! And 203a is SIMOOM, (has other spellings), in case anyone is stuck on those.

swineherds
57d partisan
74a could be inept if the H is wrong or gawky even?
What are the clues for the others you are unsure of?
Question Author
Thanks touchstone, I've changed 68d: (Narrowest), to Tightest, as I had Thinnest,
Inept is right, so I've fitted in Neural for 69d: Spine's ... pathways.
I have Pelotin for 67a: Race's main cycling bunch, but maybe the 'I' is an 'O'.
38a: Chunky - I have _ O _ Y. Swineherds also fits, so thanks! Nearly done.
Glad to hear that you're nearly there Paula

Peloton is the French word for the main Group of cyclists during a cycle stage race
Question Author
Yes, thank you Touchstone, I have Beacon ok, and the last word...38a is Boxy, (Chunky). My x-word solver says Boxy is poky, small, little, tiny, etc, though Chunky to me means big, large, well-built, etc.
Thank God, and you, it is now finished and I can get it posted!
Hi again Paula - Fozy means fat and puffy?
Question Author
Fozy is in my Bradfords X-word dictionary, but this time I need Boxy, as the 'down' word is Beacon. I'm off now as it's my feeding time and a dvd! Thanx, P. x
