23d. standard amount collected by community, r?M?. i can only assume that I have 22a wrong as I have short ton for the answer, the clue is 2000 pounds lacking, not withdrawn. Also 18 d seems to be a disaster, Stubbs seen in river in Cornwall describing animals, ?a?n?l, I have carnal !!!!!!!, 21d I assume is tablet, the clue is Version of computer battles resolved.

Thank you chelle, that reply seems very logical, I assume the una part refers to una stubbs, I was thinking of george stubbs, the artist.

Yes so did I at first, Una was the only other Stubbs I could think of!
Short ton and tablet look right.
