15a see princess during divine break (7) - *o*****. is it 'holiday' - although 'ida' as princess is stretching it a bit?!?

Hi j4277 It is holiday ida +holy as holidays were holy days have you got cornettist for 2d ? its ang of strict note and fits with holiday.
I still need 22a and 19d but can help with any others

[j4277]

thanks pega. had initially thought cornetist, with only one 't', so thank you for that. 22a is 'tank' - tan = brown + k, symbol for potassium; and 19d is 'snowy' - s (of lies) now y (of you're). simple isn't it!?!
