from the following clues:---
1. 1st letter to clue Manual = Handbook (H)
2. 2nd letter to clue Pace = S ? E ? (?)
the S is 1st letter from answer Sidedish=
clue eg salad 4,4
3. 1st letter to clue Go Under = Sink (S)
4. 7th letter to clue Express gratitude
= Thankyou (O)
5. 1st letter to Toxic Gas, 7,3

So 6 letters any order H ? S O M A =

For what it's worth, no. 2 looks like STEP

Are you quite sure no. 6 is SAND?

Sorry, forget that, it must be sand. Unless there's a THOMAS SEA I'm stumped.

It does strike me as odd that the word "gas" appears in the clue and the answer though.

Sorry, can't be of more help.

Good luck!

Hi Wendy
My mistake--- clue 5 was Toxic Agent with answer Mustard Gas which fits OK
As to the sea--- a bit of a mystery as all the letters do make THOMAS
but never heard of a Thomas sea----searched for a Thomas Sea on 'Ask Jeeves' search engine but couldnt find one.
