12 across. I leave furniture store to look for a rare foreign bird in takeaway near Christchurch ??? (3).
10 down. Embarrassing when one mistakes them for sounding like all anglers have them in their kit. ?????S. (6).
23 down. Cries like little boy dogs, initially in a polite way. S?BS (4). Could it be sobs?
50 down. He abandons the old people, then makes a cuppa. (5). ?R?W?. (5). I was thinking brews, but I can't see the abandons the old people connection.
