    Hi solvers! Thanks as always for checking my puzzle out, I hope you enjoyed it. Do let me know how you got on!
    The wash-up is as follows:
    ACROSS. 1A. Four definitions: grab hold of / prize ('a real catch') / contract (illness, infection) / difficulty. 5A. Homophone of line = ROW. 6A. Containment of love = O in member = ARM, + A. 8A. Double def. 9A. Charged = SUED + electronic = E.
    DOWN. 1D. Containment of "sign of aggression by Russia" = Z in "vehicles" = CARS. 2D. Odd letters of "AVIARY". 3D. Concealed in INTROVERT. 4D. Remove last letter of "bliss" = HEAVEN. 7D. Containment of "universal" = U in "doctor" = MD.

            Agreed that three definition for Z is very fun and modern, and also the surface of 9A is both clean and distracting. Nice!
