2 Down - Sweetheart in love cheers demoiselles. I have O-O-A-A. (I thought of ooh-la-la but that is hyphenated, needs an H instead of an O and doesn't make sense in relation to the rest of the clue.)

Thanks sarumite. I had found and rejected this word and I still can't understand the clue, but I'll work on it.
Question Author
Thanks novalis - that answers my question|
Hi Devonian ... I saw it as follows:

Sweetheart ~ "dona" (Chambers)
Love ~ O
Cheers ~ ta

Odonata ~ the dragonfly order.
O=love
dona=sweetheart
ta=cheers
Question Author
Thanks again sarumite and slaney. This clue really beat me|
Love is the score in tennis for 0 :-)
Yet would never have found this word- all the posters here are genii :-) for sure!!
Never know Dona was sweetheart either- lean something new every day ;-)

I'd always thought of the word as Donna (probably from the Spanish) I've got a vague memory of an old Music Hall song called "Never introduce your Donna to a chum"
Question Author
I've found it - the song started "Never introduce your donnah to a pal For the odds is ten to one he swipes your gal"
