Two problem clues here: the first is a down clue: 'What have two extended legs and fly across USA?' (4,5) L*N* P*N*S. It should be obvious, I'm sure, but I've drawn a blank! The other one is the Clue of the week: 'Tea before noon can give you wind (7) I only have T******. I can think of 'tornado' or 'twister' - but can't reconcile it with the clue.

Surely it's 'long pants' - the American way of saying 'trousers' ! That's where the 'fly' comes in....
