Thanks very much - keep hoping to improve my cryptic ability but doesnt seem to happen - dont understand 22 or 24 and had Grieve but couldnt make sense of it apart from the eve bit. Makes me wonder if I have 10 across correct as Castrati!!

Grieve = keen
sennight = once a week made by nigh(Close) in sent(emotionally affected)
uncle round o (nothing) up.
Admit to having really struggled with this crossword.
