The bottom half held me up too. I would have been a lot quicker if I’d gone for SY for Seychelles instead of the SS I quickly leapt in with, which caused me some problems with 25ac.

The ‘destroy’ in the middle of the long anagram fodder tricked me for a bit too, before I worked out it wasn’t in fact the anagram indicator. I had the answer for a while before I worked out where all the letters came from!

Well, it is a Monday…

There were also two LEFTS and two RIGHTS visible in the grid and TWO SIDES TO EVERY STORY. Saw L and R in the columns early on which spent solving. Letters = landlords with the leases being written, I think.

I filled in YABBER and SKELETAL without completely understanding why so thanks for explaining both of those. Like you, I would have struggled with 23a without knowing it started with an L; the final R made 24a easier too.

All in all, a nice puzzle to start the week on.
