Question Author
Thanks for the comprehensive hints, slaney! 26d was subtle, and for 11a, I anagrammed "draftees" +b. Am I right? Also, is EXTRAVASATE correct for 3d above?
Now, would you mind some more HINTS for the following?
9a Having no money, author finally hit bottle(4): ???T
22a Missiles getting bigger warheads, finally(9): ???W?A???
28a Saint about to accept sanction is shot(6): ?T?O??
23d Speech baffling overseas nurses(5): ??N??
Thanks in advance!
