11 Think of small+ a place where drinks are made.
36 Your A is wrong, and you appear to have an extra letter.
10 4-4, before treatment.



So much thematic stuff's been given, I think you'll rattle this off now.

Thank you very much, Neveracrossword !
Yes, Jno - the themed bit's come up a few times, but maybe not on Matakari's posts (I think he has quite a few!)

Matakari, you're welcome. Yes, to your 12 A letters.
I'm surprised you haven't seen non-word entries in the Spectator. I'm sure we must have had some over the last decade or so.
