I don't understand this xword this morning.
03d Province of 17a (7) no letters
04d Province of 17a (8) ditto
16d Province of 17a (8) ditto
20d Province of 17a (6) ditto
22a Another name for 17a (4)
Now for the big one
17a HOME (7)

I think the crossword setter or printer may have made a mistake.

Well done Jo, answering blind as it were, 3d was Munster, 16 Leinster, 22 across was Éire 20 was Capital (not province) of 17a which was Ireland so Dublin was the answer there

I think 22a is Eire. Erin doesn't fit.

[scorpiojo]
