oops stuck again. I do not understand these clues.
Lean girl in front-- a keeper of records(8) AC__A__I__ __

Posh-sounding essayist's most cherished possession (3,4)
A__E/__A__ __

Hi again, flopsybunny
I think the C in the first one is wrong.

btw it's much easier to read ? rather than - for missing letters

Actually, your double underlines aren't bad - is there a quick way of doing them, or is it just 2 underlines?

.....not much idea for the other, but "essayist" in crosswords is often (Charles) LAMB or "ELIA".

ace card ?

U - posh sounding - ewe + Lamb (as per ChrisE) above - ewe lamb?

Um still not getting it but essayist one could end with B. I did think the c was correct! that clue is Rigorous role in sickbay.
D__ a__ T__ __ Drastic? which gives me the c.
Yes double hit underscore.

Lean - list + Anna = Annalist?

thanks ab

Part - role in San- sickbay gives spartan, which gives the n for annalist?
