Not much time left if this has to be in by 14 May.

31a Spenser's refreshment of sleep (6) R?P?S? Must be Repose, but why?

12d US building material (10) ?I?L?S?O?E. Looks like Fieldstone, but why is this specific to US?

Am I being even stupider than usual?

Thank you, ulysses. Seventy years since I struggled with Faerie Queen, and even then the minde rebelled!

Yes Tichfield, the closing date printed for entries is indeed shown as 14 May. ☺ (S)

Hi, S. I take it that you finished this some time ago?
With my boat due to go in the water on Monday, I'm running round like a f@rt in a colander, with little time for puzzles just now.
Regards, Aq.

Hi Aqua .. you know me with this one, like a dog with a bone, can't let go until it's finished ... and yes I did complete it some time ago.

If you are in a hurry, and need any more answers send me an e-mail, although I'm also away for a long weekend on Friday morning! (S)

[Aquagility]

Very kind, S. But I'm finished now, thanks to ulysses100.
Enjoy your weekend.
