Just two left and driving me crazy:

4d A custom with imbibing the French or the German wine (7) AUS - - I - (Austria? But if so, why?)

28d Tree dancing girl climbs (4) AML - (What on earth can that be?)

I'm *fairly* sure about the letters already there, although experience has taught me not to trust my own mind.

Would appreciate help with return to sanity.

Once more, kayakamina, you demonstrate your genius. You have been doing crosswords for 65 years, I for a mere 50. That's obviously the difference. So I know it must be my error that your Auslese clashes with my 19a, to wit: Stupidly lament having embraced girl that's left to move on (7) I have CRAZILY because that's the only word which fitted. Am I wrong?
