MUSSEL (sounds like MUSCLE)
The first one might be
AN XMAS PUDDING

Homeric? (pigeon-like .... homing pigeon)
Question Author
Thanks for those....but if Xmas is right (sounds good) the other one can't be Mussel as it would now be S???EL...is there any other Punning that would fit in.?
Plum Pudding would fit Mussel

so what is the first word. IN?
Plum Pudding. But then the An is wrong.
Plum Puddding .... but, can't see the first word being 'An'
Question Author
It must be a mistake (by the compiler) as the L now suits another clue.

Only one left now: For the South it's great back there the way it goes down.....S?G? ....could be SAGS but why?
saga? (a gas <----)
