| 1. | Super relevant clue but what a pity that two syllables are missing from the second line – thus the scansion is flawed. |

| Evidently not easy, a lot of the clues frankly didn't make sense. I ended up giving my marks to clues that I had reservations about – even 25 which has the best surface but has a possibly dodgy DLM definition (I didn't think padding was OK in DLM definitions). However, it is poetry, so I read 'Makes' as 'definition follows' and awarded my 5 there. |
