@farkha,
Hi Farkha
Have not come across this Cryptic from Lovatts yet. Have 4 answers for you, will work on the others when I can.

17d = LONGED
56d = CADILLAC
52d = EXITED
65a = IDEAL

Hope this helps for starters.

@Dutchy,
I feel 21a is CICADAS, would that fit?

Re: Dutchy(Post 3370776)
Thanks Imur. Thanks for the reply Dutchy. The answers fit except 21a -'insects'
fits well. Looking forward to 59D's answer - Mobile left at sea?Clever! (8). Could Portable be a possible answer? Cheers.
where is all the discussion on Lovatts X words

@farkha,
Hi Farkha,

I have 'MOVEABLE' for 59d. 21a I have 'INSECTS'. As for 18d, I have 'SATURN'. Please confirm with the rest. Thank you.

@krystalline,
Hi krystalline, I do have insects and saturn but have opted for portable for 59D on the premise that clever is able, mobile is portable and because port has a little of the sea. My logic may be waaaay off ....
