Well, I got there.

Ten out of ten for the puzzling skill involved in this, Twin. Truly astonishing. But I was left a little deflated with the final step, which could so easily have been at a level to match the rest of the puzzle.

Good fun, though - I enjoyed the grid fill challenge, particularly.

A tour de force with some excellent clues.
The instructions were tough to follow but concluded with an unambiguous end game.

Thanks Twin.

Clues were a sod.

Great challenge though.

Thanks, Twin.

By the way, I ought to have said this is Puzzle of the Year for me!

Encota

Fabulous puzzle! My thanks to Twin!

Too tough for me, have solved about half the clues and unable to get started in the grid.

When the answers are published I'll get my partner to tell me the answers to the 9-letter clues (of which I have only solved two) so that I can at least have the fun of trying to complete the grid and endgame.

Hats off to those able to complete this beast.

Definitely wishing I had a version of Chambers where you can search the entire dictionary.

Especially frustrating that there are some clues where I have a pretty good idea of the first two letters and I still can't solve them!

@Dim16 - there is an app for the Chambers Dictionary that you can download onto a smartphone.

I thought the clues and the grid-fill were an outstanding challenge - very hard, but entirely fair. Many thanks to The Twin for that.

The post grid-fill fiddling was trivial (part 1) and incredibly boring(part 2) - I know where it's going, but have lost the will to live whilst counting and re-counting. My eyesight is more important than poring over this any longer - I'm glad I don't submit, so I can stop now.

Kudos to those who persist(ed) to the bitter end.

As with Sunny Dave. A very tough set of clues and a challenging grid fill. Then, the two instructions - one straightforward, the other extremely tedious. And an endgame that left me feeling "Is that it?" - like climbing Everest only to find it overlooked by a block of council flats. POTY? Nah 10/10 for cleverness, 3/10 for effect
