Well, well! I look forward to a week like this one. A rare occasion indeed on this site.

Hi also to Ari and Jazz

The two published are correct (and, vendor and vender are given equal status in Chambers).

I'll leave things hanging (pardon me!) for the moment to see if the rest will emerge.

The answer to no. 1, I'd never heard of before BUT the clue should produce the answer. SHARK is not a fish, OK?

No.2 is 'pure cryptic'

Well that's the first think I have learned today, jolan - I wouldn't have considered VENDER as a valid spelling!

I wondered about ???? FISHER or ???? SURFER for 2, of course, but couldn't come up with anything.
