[Davemano]

15 and 21 were not included. 15 is the second part of 13d. 21 is the second part of 18d.

[Neveracrossword]

Thanks, Davemano - so there were 12 clues...

[Davemano]

Nacw No, 11

[Toorak]

My head’s spinning

[Neveracrossword]

Thanks again, Davemano - the 'few', the tidied-up version, the additional info... all confused me!

[Davemano]

The 11 were a third of the clues.

[Davemano]

OP must have solved some of the others, which there are one or two 'tricky' ones, unless there is more to come.

[Neveracrossword]

These were described as the 'last few', so the rest should be fine!
