My head hurts - wasted time and energy trying to fit R or K for "king" hardwall

is + t(o) + h(is) + m(ajesty) + Ian -> isthmian

That was evil praise

Well navigated, although I think the beginning is ist = first.

You mus' now take the Belt, so here it isth: ===[**CDM**]===

It took us a while to work it out in a FT puzzle (our regular lunchtime brain-training): I did not even know there was an adjective for isthmus! The plural of isthmus could also offer interesting crossword possibilities (isthmuses or isthmi), as well as probably being quite a challenge for anyone suffering from a lisp... catrub

Thanks, Lex! grin

Interesting - "ian" was a gift, then I was stuck until your hint which meant the first letter must be "a" or "i". I then reckoned that "is first to" meant "is" plus the first letter of "to". It then had to be something to do with "isthmus" since from my practice making up the word chains I knew that this was the only common word beginning "ist" woozy

One of the many Brit crossword conventions. A Scot is usually "Ian" (a common Scottish name) or "mac" smile

Chard = vegetable - char (burn) + d (gourmand's last) and Asian = continental - as (like) + Ian, as no one else is biting blackkitty
