do you have any letters placed?
21d ruler = re+lur(e) backwards
Question Author
If 21d is ruler, 24a will be *l*a*r..19d c*r****l. 25a Delay going round to catch pests,not very early (7) g*r***t Boiswood
10d looks like Carousel but I can't explain it.
On 19d you are showing 8 letters I think, not 7
I'm finding this difficult to follow, sorry
not carousel, then!
24a Altair ? is a star but can't see how it fits with rest of clue
i'm also stuck.. 21d.. I make ruler (lure +r) 19d I thought might be classic? not happy with that at present..have you got 17a and 25a...24a I thought might be connected to 'Separate Tables' but am still working on it it is a super crossword and normally I can finish although I felt the latter part of Antico's explanation didn't make sense e.g 'they indicate must 1a to create' I assume he means letters from it!!
(from a query on another site)

17A Vessel, far adrift, breaking law at sea(5,5)

Seems to be DEw-ar f-laSK

So the crytic part is inside(separates) a "table"?
24A is "i" - films 2nd in altar
19d is CHAR i o [odd letters of "iron"] T

The other theme clues along with 17a and 24 a are 10a SLAB (with key minus e inserted) and 6d BOARD with ll inserted)
Just joined the Oldie but still awaiting first copy looking forward to good crosswords but can't help with these oops sorry :(
