Thanks very much cerasus and malone.
19d I had as emailed not emanate DOH!

Thanks zozozo too!

6D They might tramp up and down pollarded trees (5) A?E?S

Assuming it's RACERS with R "pollarded" ?

13A The sort of beast the solver sounds like (3) E?E

I can see play on "I" but beast? AI maybe?

Ewe

Sounds like you - the solver is 'you' and the setter is 'i'

(R)acers

Thanks for the speedy and lucid help :)

You're welcome john

I assumed the 'they might tramp up and down' referred to Pacers? It doesn't make any difference to the answer, of course!

Pacers works better malone

Thanks, Zozozo - I didn't think Racers fitted the wording very well.

To be honest I didn't give it enough thought - but I knew that acers was the solution (trees)

Must pay more attention next time!
