Hi there,

Stuck on a fair few today. Grateful for any ideas on:

14d (9) 'Swimming trunks so displayed on end of dune - consequence of a hot day?' I've got ------o-e

21a (9) 'Upset, one rants and raves initially - it worried daughter' I think it's --r------

Thanks.

21. Irritated???
I can't get the full parsing tho - I'm missing a couple of letters, so probably wrong!

Thanks again. I had gone for 'irritated' but hadn't actually worked the full reasoning, so thanks for that.

My last one - 8d (6) 'Reduction in satisfaction over microphone used in cinema'. I think it's -i-m-c

Thanks
