Constructor's Note
I'd like to thank Skaldskaparmal and Liari for testing this crossword. And you for trying it, I hope you enjoy it.
A hoy hoy!
A bit of a smaller grid this time, and mostly easier clues. This one goes out to all my friends who tolerate me badgering them with random clues at odd hours.

      Thank you :)
      Yea, there was little available fill for .a.a.at; at least I didn't need to dip into the archaisms for that one :)
