Good one..and happy birthday JerseySue

HAPPY BIRTHDAY!

The I I almost flummoxed me, luckily the last category.

cool, cool!

Maybe capital L in CL?

Yes, I got II, but I was confused by Cl

Brilliant grid - very different

love this one

Very good. Kuw 8 could’ve just been Q8 like the petrol stations

Gutted it wouldn't take "charismatic megafauna."

(Naw. Lots of fun!)

Yes!!! Shame about the font- looked better on the submission form- considered capitals for CL but thought it would confuse the format distinction between the soundalike and spelled parts. Also considered Q8- but anticipated the usual backlash about not 100% exact homophones! I I would also have been easier in a slightly different font (distinct from lower case L) but hopefully there were enough dangling carrots to get the gist and the subjects! Thanks, as always, for taking the time to comment xx

Sorry- there's not meant to be the first gap in M ana T!

Nice one

Very enjoyable and different one.
