Cryptic crossword No 4,051

Very nice, and moderate indeed. I especially liked 9a,12a,15a and 2d,5d,13d. Bested by 4d, clever wordplay too clever for me, alas! Thanks, Prak

Nice one, Prak. I really liked 6a, 17a, 21a, 23a, 25a (once I stopped thinking of CAN), 26a, 3d and 20d. My favourite was 7d. Totally missed the extra touch revealed in annotations, but nicely done and timed!

Thanks Prak most enjoyable solve, faves were 6a, 19a, 4d, 5d and 20d cheers 🕷️

Good stuff - I liked 6d and 15a (nice way to clue the first bit) in particular

Nice one.

Very nice Prak, very nice indeed. Liked 6a, 21a, 4d, 7d and 14d. Thanks!

Very smooth and I thought on the gentle side- must have been on your wavelength! My favourites were my LOI 11a, 15a, 16a, 1d, 6d, 20d and 24d. I'm completely in the dark re the SI though. Thanks Prak.

Nice one and not too difficult. Favourites were 11a, 13a, 26a, 7d and 24d. Thanks!

Nice puzzle Prak, had to check the date and relevance of the pic to get the theme... favourites are 6d, 11a, 16a 13d, thanks

Excellent work, I really enjoyed this and sorry not to get to it on the correct day...! Favourite 6a.

Really enjoyed the variety of both words and wordplay in this one, Prak. Didn't get to it until my day off, which unfortunately isn't a 3d... but got a laugh from the theme regardless. Favorites were 17a, 19a, 1d, 13d, 14d, and 22d.

Very late to this; been a busy boy. Glad I did - nice clues and not too tricky. For once, I spotted what the SI mean (once I realised I = I not 1) but cannot connect it to the title of the crossword, I'm afraid.
