Could the A be wrong? It looks like GOLD DIGGER

Yes, Chrise, it could - I wasn't happy with 17d (8): Weight of skirt that had been shortened, Margo repaired ?(A?)?O?R?M; first A is the questionable one, I'd put nanogram, but maybe not?

MUCH better, thank you on all counts! Any thoughts on "Framework for the rest of the night?" please - no letters as yet.
