3d In Bud ( bud ..pal ..mate familiar etc in the US)
Question Author
Thanks again Shaneystar 2

By the way 16d was chnged to a "d" at the end as a result of your answer any idea ?
Well shooting is.. in bud .. and bud is the US familiar so would say that's correct .
16d could be Behead ..but can't parse it
Question Author
Any thoughts as to why 16d might be behead ??
I can't see why dave ..sorry ..perhaps someone clever may come along :)
Question Author
Thank you Shaneystar 2.

Somebody clever did come along "you". Incidentally I came up with behead before I saw your post so it may be a case of great minds think alike or as my teachers said to me at school fools seldom differ !
Lol ..dave .I hope it's correct anyway in spite of not being able to say why .
Good luck x
OK, I think this is how it becomes behead, but it's a bad clue!

Dee - River reversed (flowing over) and put at characters 2,4,6 (even)

BH - Bournemouth postcode

A - Area

so you get

B H A
E E D
