Just a few left, which I have kind of worked out but can't derive exactly.


14 across: It's extracted from palm in farming communes(4) _I_I. I think the answer is VICI
20 across: A conspirator punished by post-mortem beheading, not by stocks (6) ACA _ _S. ACARUS?
9 down: Imported horses, second pair bringing up rear, compete at Braemar? (6) _A_S_ _
22 down: Bottled Grolsch - gallons disposed of - in fine (English style) stein (6) S_H_R_
26 down: Nothing occupying a seat that is rertained by a fastener (5) _IPIN

22 Schorl anag (G)rolsch
Question Author
Yes, schorl is a type of stone, but what has that to do with fine Enlish style etc?
I think Jo already answered that in her second post - 'stein' being the German word for what in the English style would be 'stone', so the definition is 'fine stone'.
14a MIRITI (palm) with IT removed
20a a catesby (conspirator) with by removed
9d walers = horses ... then move the le to the end (2nd pair bringing up rear)
26d zipin (zip = nothing) in (occupying a seat in politics say)
last one (I hope!) - 16a Indian lawyer relocated in Khartum (7). I have LU?H?AR. Thanks
Sorry for typo Mukhtar
Thank you - I'm wrong on 13 down - pity - thought it was a good answer. Heigh-ho!
Got it now - thanks again.
