1d...Cuts involving one area ? Sounds petty !
M?A?W?....MIAOWS ?
Can't see the wordplay here, or where the answer is defined.

cuts=MOWS
one area = I A
sounds petty = sounds of pets=MIAOWS
Right?!

I can see that now Greedy...thanks !

I am having difficulty with 5a...Exclamation in school ? Dry up. I have seen this answered as SCORCH, but I am not convinced.

It also makes problem with 7d...Man in pub reversed - any impact of this !...R?H??......I can make nothing with this !

Actually I can make REHAB, although I'm not sure how this fits the clue !

SCORCH
exclamation=cor!
inside SCH

REHAB
man=HE
inside BAR reversed

Thanks mattrom !
