The following clues form a word chain. The last three letters of one word or phrase form the first three letters of the next word, and the list wraps round from the last word to the first. Mostly straightforward with the odd one needing the Stitchionary, but there may be one or two hyphenated words, alternative spellings or short phrases in there, and remember it was compiled by a Brit.

No more then 2 each per day for the first two days, please smile

-1. Refuse to have dealings with boycott
-2. Canadian city Ottawa
-3. Terminates period of sleep awakens
-4. Naval officer ensign
-5. Fool ignoramus
-6. Breed of wild horse mustang
-7. Plant used in medicine and cookery angelica
-8. Greek high-flyer Icarus
-9. Canadian-British tennis-player Rusedski
-10. Butterfly of the family Hesperiidae skipper
-11. A proportion in relation to a whole percentage
-12. Ancient age-old
-13. James Francis Edward Stuart, aka..... ? old pretender
-14. Firearm derringer
-15. To divide the constituencies of a voting area so as to give one party an unfair advantage gerrymander
-16. Ridicule, mockery derision
-17. Denoting one of the five classical orders of architecture Ionic
-18. A recess in a wall niche
-19. A knight, say chessman
-20. Broad-tailed plant-eating aquatic mammal manatee
-21. Body parts composed chiefly of dentin surrounding a sensitive pulp and covered with enamel teeth
-22. C2H6 ethane
-23. Based on hearsay anecdotal
-24. High chest of drawers tallboy

Sometimes lost is where you need to be. Just because you don't know your direction doesn't mean you don't have one.
