Hi all,
These are all lovely clues! Just a couple of queries though, so if the setters (or anyone else) can shed some light on them I'd appreciate it.
chrise @ 2 tintinnabulator?
Ixion @ 18 Some do less (am I reading this one right, PART (y)?

Hi therogue
Reference to the Latvian composer Arvo PART, who used "tintinnabulation" in many of his works.

Yes...as per your parsing, defn "some"

The beginning of parthenogenesis is just a matter of divide a component and see it go away (4)

Ah evening all,
Thanks everyone for your participation, I've very much enjoyed working out all your clues. Each one a worthy winner, but alas that can not be!
Particular favourites were Marty's parrot @5, Ginge's paraquat @16 and Ixion's part(y) @18.

The winner this week, though, is mattrom's

"Go back! Ambush!"

A lovely surface read (with a sense of adventure!)

Here's your prize,

Congrats, mattrom, thanx, the rogue.
I think you have to omit the "s" in that link to get through...................
