Sorry Belling,
I see you asked for hints not answers, hope I haven't spoilt it for you.

Hints would have been better but nevertheless thanks very much for the answers. I can now cross another 2 cryptic clues off my list. Have still got a few to go.

You are obviously very good at deciphering cryptic clues.

Thanks again
