Def, With bottle

[brainiac]

With bottle - brave, heroic

Mineral - ore - backwards

Sound after drinking alcohol - hic

Put HIC round ERO

I didn’t know that to dog ear meant turn down the corner!

[stevenj]

Wow, I can see why you’re called brainiac!
Thanks to you all. As ever, great support and help.
Stay safe everybody!
