A Tricky Izetti Quick Crossword

Times Quick Cryptic No 1949 by Izetti

A rather tricky but perfectly fair challenge for us for the end of the week from Don with the usual neat and precise clues and some nice pieces of misdirection. I found it at the harder end of the spectrum, taking 9:17 to finish - my slowest for quite a while. There are a few words on the edge of my vocabulary that I needed the wordplay to find. 5d took me a while to see and 4A was my LOI. Lots to enjoy, though - I liked the concise 12A best. Thank-you Izetti! How did you all get on? If you found it difficult, don't worry - I'm sure you will be in good company.
