12a Characters listed in play (6) -i-d-s Tildes? But they are signs not characters.
6d 15,something to do with a fast one, say (6) -u-l-t. Bullet? Why?
22d Get to taste bitter (6) --n-r-. Answer to this will give me 22a.

tks to all.

Thank you all. Not that convinced by the clueing/parsing of any of them. Bitter =wintry?

Pullet parses in a similar way to 21d if you have done that one. What do you do with fast one? You pull it. Makes more sense than bullet, which doesn't match the definition.

Get = win and to taste = try

I see a lot of iffy clues on AB, but I thought those three were sound - 'in play' is perhaps a slightly questionable anagram indicator, but I've seen much, much worse!
