Sorry! Punctuation is everything! It should read:-
We hear braid oddly after, undies oddly. (9)

Ok folks,
We have 10 clues from 8 setters.

Ginge, could you just explain your clue No10. is 'Pla' (Alp climbing) replacing 'at' of 'Attitude' (pluck)

Let the voting begin

Not quite les,

Pluck for going mountain climbing in the first place

"Pluck" = fortitude, "for going" gives titude
"Mountain climbing in the first place" as you correctly say Les; alp "climbing in the first place" gives pla placed first. So pla + titude.

"Its a cliche but you'll need" is the definition and a preamble. Me/I normally in a clue referring to the setter so you = the solver.

Hello and welcome ianshaw and dandybandy. I'm sure Les will steer you in the direction of the midweek versions in his "summation" later.
