All done, but would appreciate a few explanations.
2d How no material was had by chance (9) U - L - C - I - Y UNLUCKILY
22d Get to open water! (5) R - A - H REACH. Thought of double meaning, but I can't find reach as open water in Chambers.
17a Twenty-four-hour baker's round at first light. D - Y - R - A - DAYBREAK. Can see the day, but...
Thanks for help.

Thanks. Chambers let me down for once.
It has that definition online and I can't believe it wouldn't be in the printed version too - noun defn 5 http://www.chambersha...itle=21st&query=reach
Question Author
Yes, going back to it I found it under raught in the printed version. Curious, usually the Chambers online version misses lots of things that are in the printed version, must be improving with time.
