  Great puzzle! 1A & 5A were my favourites :)

  Nice one! Challenging at first but the pieces finally began to fall into place. Still a little unsure of 1A - I get PUN for wordplay, but not sure how the S should be derived? But thanks!

    Back-to-front = final letter moved to the front of the word.

  Disaster!

  "prepper" is not a common term in the UK. "claims" does not appear in any of my lists of container/hidden word indicators.

    Thanks for giving my American nonsense a go! And forgive me for going rogue with "claims." I'm surprised that's not recognized

  Enjoyed it! Some clues I didn’t get at first pass, but my answers were informed by the ones I did get. Well done!
