8d is Aiguille.

Not got 6d yet, but I make it S?S?N?E?O?, the N coming from 12a, Fricandeau.

[sarumite]

I think you need to check your 5a and 12a .. I can help if you need it.

[Aquagility]

I like Mesenteron, sarumite, but what do you have for 5a?

[sarumite]

5a pompom

[Aquagility]

Thanks, I had Pistol.

[yellow11]

thanks all-now done-much harder today?

[Aquagility]

Who's this weirdo who takes to his bed at the crucial moment, 14a?

[sarumite]

I have " Couvade"

[Aquagility]

Thanks, sarumite. Finished now.
A bit more like it today (and Saturday). Kate must have been reading our comments.
In particular, many of the clues were not immediately Googleable. Better.

[sarumite]

Yes .. this is the most difficult herculis puzzle that we've seen for some considerable time. Had to use every aid at my disposal. But you had the unenviable task of posting the links Aq .. well done!

yes, trickiest Herculis I remember. Remembered fricandeau `cos I`ve cooked it - very nice too!!
