I'm stuck on the last few of this one, hope someone can help, please:

19a milkmaids in song and Santa's 5 for example ?c?e??
23a Sudden development that makes Santa toil frantically (9) s?l?a?i?? (is it "saltation"?)
20d waits at Christmas, for example, for some birds (7) ????e??
28a (see 1) Seasonal message to the faithful) 1,5,9,2,3,3,7) I've already got "Merry Christmas (for 1a)
and I've got "to all ?u? s?l?e?s"

Oh, and 5 is team of high-fliers drawing at Christmas (8), I presume is "reindeer".

Hope someone can help, Chox.

I think the last word is SOLVERS and the other should probably be YOU so is your 'u' correct?
Saltation is correct-it is an abrupt evolutionary development
19a octets ? because there 8 of each
SINGERS for 20d? Waits are Christmas singers and birds sing.
