Weekend Australian, Sunday Times 626

More sheep than a Kiwi can poke a stick at. Mostly inclusives and anagrams. Plus an unfair share of obscurities.

Across
1. STRATEGY. Anag of GET inside STRAY. "Wandering" is doing double duty: signalling the anagram and qualifying "sheep". Daggy sheep clue #1.
5. KINCOB. Obscure variety of silk.
9. CASEMENT. AS inside CEMENT. "Specifically" = AS?
10. SCAMPI. CAMP inside S(outh) I(sland). For this meaning of "camp", see Ramson. Daggy sheep clue #2.
12. ENDURE. Anag of UNDER + E(ast).
13. PRESIDES. IDE (the fish) inside PRESS.
15. ENGRAVE. Anag of AVENGER. Obscure meaning of "chase".
16. KAGU. Rhynochetus jubatus. Anag of G(reat) + AUK.
20. NOUS. Double def. (Favourite word of the Old Mum -- see blog entry for 23rd March).
21. NUNDROO. About 1000k from Adelaide on the Nullarbor. NUN + DR + OO (two "loves" in tennis).
25. BADGERED. BAD + anag of GREED.
26. SQUARE. Double def. Only old fogeys like Dot would use the word "square" these days. Bad surface: you can't reconcile a person.
28. TARBOY. TAR + BOY. Given that a tarboy is a youngster, a terrible surface. Daggy sheep clue #3.
29. NAPIFORM. NAP + I FORM. Obscure again.
30. DEARTH. D (large number) + EARTH.
31. REDOLENT. Anag of DON'T LEER. Wrong part of speech.

Down
1. SACKED. Double def.
2. RESIDE. Inclusive.
3. TAMARIND. Anag of DIRT A MAN.
4. GUNS. Rev of SNUG, the joiner in A Midsummer Night's Dream.
6. IN CASE. Double def.
7. COMEDIAN. Anag of DEMONAIC. Definition by example is always egregious -- since we're dealing with sheep.
8. BLISSFUL. BLISS (Arthur) + F(ugue) + U(niversity) + L (student).
11. BRAVADO. AD (time?) inside BRAVO.
14. AROUSED. USE inside A ROD.
17. UNABATED. Anag of A BAD TUNE.
18. MUNDARDA. Cercartetus concinnus. (South)Western Pygmy Possum (no hyphen). Anag of RUDD A MAN.
19. MOSQUITO. S(outh) and QUIT (leave) inside MOO (low).
22. RETORT. RE + TORT. Criminal!
23. SALOME. Anag of ALSO + ME.
24. PERMIT. PER (for every) +M (thousand) + IT.
27. PALE. P(arking) + ALE. Egregious?
