      Entertaining puzzle but I stumbled on a few. 31D Gave up on this one! I see "mad" as an adjective so shouldn't have a plural. 34A Parse, please. 3A Parse, please. 36A Sorry, didn't like it! I don't see "lone" as a synonym. 28D That's the first time I've seen P as an abbreviation for "papa". I shall add it to my list. These aren't criticisms, just the clues I couldn't get!

        Thanks for the feedback, yea generally I'll agree that 34A and 3A are tricky to parse, and yea coming up with a definition for 31D is kinda hard

          3A parses as the beginning letter of N(O) + AND without its last letter (no end). I'm also having trouble equating body to vessel!

            Thanks! It's obvious when you see it - I'm ashamed to have missed it!
