Special Instructions: Topical, so I've got it out a little more quickly than I'd like. Some clues aren't fully Ximenean, I admit. With thanks to Carolyn Power for some invaluable help!

Thanks Cormac (and Carolyn). Nicely done, particularly 24. Still new at this setting lark but to me bending of (some) Ximenean rules can make for more fun, as long as it's a fair fight.

May the Good Lord look kindly on your soul. My brain hurts, and will until somebody explains 27a to me.

Great minds Cormac, but I did beat you by one day on the theme with my 2401. I don't take Ximenes too seriously, I am more intent on having fun. If you would like to collaborate with me on a themed crossword project with me please contact me via darby.higgs on the gmail service.

I came late to this, after 7,28. Good fun as all the 9s arrived. But I think my fave is 4d. 10a made me smile, and getting the fodder in 12a to produce the solution is rather diabolical, bravo!
