19 ac. Club most recently used in endless wall of sand? (7) Have B_A_T_R, so there are only a limited number of possibilities, but can't get it!
Also, why is 5 d. NEEDING?

Club most recently used in endless wall of sand?
I think it is Blaster - most recently(last) used in endless wall of sand (berm endlessly = ber).
What is the clue for 5d?

Oops, sorry, forgot about clue! Short of attention, number coming in for an hour (7)
Thanks for explanation for BLASTER!

p.s. I'm not too sure why "Club" gives the answer "Blaster", but there is a cricket bat known as "The Club Blaster"

short of = needing
attention = heedind
number coming in for an hour - means replace h(hour) with n(number)

Thanks KenA.
Knowing blaster = sand wedge, makes the clue much better than I first thought.
