I suppose I enjoyed that! Although EV_Solver is right about most of the clues, I thought several were tough enough to make quite challenging. I found it hard to believe that, given how many letters can map to each number, there was not a more straightforward English word that would fit where the solution to "Congolese town..." goes, but I really don't think there is. A very clever construction. At least the colouring was easy, and I haven't had the full crayon set out for a while.
