18d gas supplier's list set up over time - A?R?T?rR
23d wife gives endless service to children D?T?H - I thinks it's dutch - get the wife connection but not endless service to children part.
21d Garden plant?. There's quickness getting rid of it - ?E?E?Y
19D The most important person -unhappy, upset, wearing away - E?O?I?N - obviously erosion springs to mind but can only see it answering one part of the clue.

Please would some kind soul tell me if what I have so far is or is not correct and point me in the right direction rather than just give me the answers.
Many thanks
