Hello Pomona
No idea what is going on, Mr O always confounds me, I have only done about 10 clues and have absolutely no suggestion of a PDM. There used to be a great chatty/helpful/hint worthy site here, just don't know where everyone has gone but it has left me floundering big-time. All got very boring and I am sorry I cannot throw even the slightest hint for you......all the clever-cloggsis have abandoned ship!
Regards

Hello Pomona and Devadolly,
I jumped ship purely because the threads weren't N&Cy! I refuse however to be classified as a clever-cloggsis!
Here are hints for 11a, 31a and 14a!
11a, this is a 4 letter answer to the clue, so 3 blank cells. Bradfords lists a 2 letter word for "it"! Surround that with the first and last letters of huge and there is your tree. The last 3 lights are the blank ones.
31a, C is definitely Cornwall's first. Bradford's also gives a 5 letter word meaning "outcast", if you were one you were obliged to shield your face and
ring a bell! You need to shorten that word to get the answer to the clue, there is a blank light in the grid.
14a, is normal, O is Oswald's first, then take up the spout as being an anagram indicator!
There are numerous indications of where the Quotation is taken from, 1a, 13a, 10d to name but 3! You will also need to look at the grid as a bit of a jigsaw, and once you see where the blank lights appear you will be helped! Took me a while to see that, the title as always is useful.
Sorry, but as Devadolly knows I don't do straight answers, just hints. As soon as I saw the Setter I heard a moan of "OOOOOOOOOOOOOOOH NOOOO" from the North West! Time to pour another Ozzy red! Off on holiday on sunday!

Oh good.....a bit of a thread! Thanks for the quote hint Pomona. Agree Doc used to enjoy the N & C and also the test of compiling a hint without giving the game away. There w indeed a howl of anguish as I opened the paper but will persevere from your hints. A bit of N & C'ing for you.....Ginger Mog has been in full ratting mode but has met a match and got a hefty rat bite on his right 'arm' which has swollen to the size of a golf ball and will not head. We have to admit defeat (we can usually deal with cat abscesses quite efficiently with Hydrogen P to clean them) and he's off to the vet later this am. He is very sorry for himself curled up in the washing basket.
Hello Roslyn and Jim360. Many thanks for all the hints will have a look later. Poor Ginger Mog won't be too helpful, he is flaked out on his fleece. The abscess was heading inwards and he had to have it cut, drained and washed out + anti-b's so there is a very bare and blood stained 'arm' but at least he has been demanding food again!
Sorry to hear about Ginger Mog, perhaps he might now decide that he should be taking life a little easier! Do you have a younger model for Ginger Mog to train?
With a bit of license in interpretation, I reckon there are at least 15 references to the source of the quotation. I must admit I found Bradford's very helpful, but then again, it always is!
It has been glorious here on the South Coast, sunny and 24°C and I have had to mow lawns, rather than relax!
