Cape Times Cryptic Crossword

[JackDunwoody]

24d Asked to be informed (4) ?O?D TOLD seems too obvious?

[geevo41]

if you said 'Let me know' you would have asked to be informed?

[donny48]

seen as nose

[donny48]

I can see no other parse apart from nose sounds like (asked) knows(informed)

[JackDunwoody]

The letters are definitely ?O?D so NOSE isn't an option Donny

[dannyk13]

told fits informed but not sure about asked.

[donny48]

What gives you the "d", Jack ?

[JackDunwoody]

27a gives me the D. It is: Fed up and angry by half time (5)
half time = TI, angry = RED, TIRED = Fed up

[dannyk13]

Jack, although it does seem a bit obvious I would go with Told.

[mallyh]

27a seen as terse
24d seen as nose

[JackDunwoody]

Thank you all

[dannyk13]

Mally I can't see how terse parses.Jack's answer of tired fits the clue and parses well.
