[slowmotion]

Could anyone give us a solution to one of the clues? Need a kickstart for this one. Many thanks.

[scorpiojo]

I think the first part of 26 is buy a pup, 18 s(k)inful/besides

[slowmotion]

Thank you!

[scorpiojo]

welcome...driving me mad :)

19 part 1 ordnance?
3d part 1 Metro?

[jackes]

16-overplay & suitcase

[scorpiojo]

I have ordinance

[bibblebub]

i can't be bothered with it this week bu a quick look

7a: the second answer seems to be ATROPOS

[Simonelle]

12 part 1 is NEEPS (anagram of "seen" & "p" from potato)
12 part 2 would be the odd letters from Berliner (BRIE) + another letter, so something like BRINE, BRIDE, BRIEF, etc.

2 part 1 is FIRE/OPALS (anagram of I OF PEARL)

19 part 1 will be anagram of ORDNANCE with another letter, so something along the lines of ORDINANCE, CLARENDON, ...

15 part 1 an anagram of NEAT TAILOR + another letter

[scorpiojo]

21 part 1 Berks?
4 part 2 foregoing?

[jackes]

15A-ALTER(CorN)ATION & CLEANLINESS.

[suekeek]

19a left serengeti, 13a left scrounges, 23a right banjoist - more if you ask

[suekeek]

oops previous post - got my left & right the wrong way around!

[hankir]

24. Orpine/Victim?

[jackes]

PS.15-ALTERNATION as 9 is LEGAL NICETY.

[hankir]

Left grid.
Hints on 9D and 13A?

[hankir]

Crossed on 9D. Anagram.

[suekeek]

9d legal nicety & speculation

[crockshard]

I am nearly there, but stuck on last few and I have not used a Q yet. I am completely stumped by 7a in left grid and 21a in right grid...

[scorpiojo]

At the moment, I've pencilled in Q at 22 left

[crockshard]

That makes sense, Scorpiojo - I have just discovered I have added two Gs!
