3d, Agreement?

[Bernie]

Justification would fit but Dwarfish would begin with N. Reduce would begin with J. Validation would begin I.
Many thanks

1a concentration?

[Bernie]

I think I'm right with 10a. Clue. Sounds like you are a louse (4) I have unit which gives me the t for 3d

[dannyk13]

7a.Nitpick?

[mallyh]

1d clip?

[dannyk13]

Id.slim? diet? chop?

[mallyh]

1a or concentrating?

[fiction-factory]

consolidating?

[Captain2]

If 'consolidating' 1d could be 'chop' or 'clip'

Dwarfish could be Grumpy

Please can you clarify what you mean by "all these link in"
Do you mean there isa theme (I can see minute and agreement for example) or just they cross each other.

Where was your S from in 1a and where were t and E from in 7a?

7a Laniate?
