6 boondocks
20 attempt
14d whetstone
16 Bruckner
i'm sure 14d is whetstone but i can't see a definition?
14 anagram of hone and test + w(what's first)
i see that donny but where's the definition?
Still cannot see definition unless we do not have the full clue.
Just found the crossword and clue is correct.
That is the full clue but it ends with a question mark suggesting an &lit

think i'll steer clear of the i cryptic crossword then :-)

What do you mean by an &lit, Toorak.
I don’t fully understand it but I think it is where the whole clue is the definition

I’ll try to find a better explanation
Toorak has it really - eg in this case you'd need to use a whetstone first before a hone test (test for sharpness).
Thank you Toorak, I think this standard of crossword is above my level.
me too donny
