Just wondered if anyone would be kind enough to provide explanations on a few of the answers which i'm not fullly sure of.

24a people gathered cups and ring as souvenir (7) I have put the answer as momento but not sure what the cups and rings part of clue refer to. i assume people is MEN with O as the rings possibly . can't account for the MT.

8d peer into unknown twice every 12 months (6) -e-r-y. nearby ?

12d they help you see eye muscles (5) s-e-s . steps ?

18d Spain evasive about record in environmental science (7) e-o-o-y. ecology ?

20d damp unpleasant smell i start to detct (5) h-m-d. humid ?

25d group of 7 pieces on board (3) m-n.
