i've solved most of the clues but not many of them fit

They all have to be modified in a particular way, as dictated by the maxim in the perimeter. Have a look at the Setter's name! That gives a heavy hint.

Hello Doc HH, I'm in the same position as oldboot, will have another look, just doesn't click at all and the VERY empty perimeter is very upsetting. By the way, Ginger Mog is enjoying this heat-wave and spread out in the yard on his back, measures 3ft 4ins from nose to back legs!

devadolly,
Just enter the solved clues, then look at the clashes. It soon becomes apparent how the answers should be entered. Even the 13 light answers are thematically treated
Pleased to hear G-M is enjoying the heat wave. Did you have a nice holiday, where did you go?
Herself retired on 27th May, I may have to go back to work to get out of her way!

Afraid the setter name didn't give even a light hint, even tried Mr Google and that was more confusing than ever. Have entered the clues I have and most seem to conform but have grave doubts about 29a which seemed a good answer at the time. Apart from the obvious change, nothing is even creeping (let alone leaping) out at me. Absolutely no nearer with the maxim though I can probably dig up a few relevant to lack of workable grey matter!
GM in disgrace, he was stalking our latest Blue-tit hatchings and now confined to quarters.
