Help! and if you have time to explain, all the better, thanks all
last two
21d O*S**
Charge out non-resident's take-away dinners
- i thought this must be ONSET- but muddled by it's connection to the next clue

27a *E***T*D Set out again from a dead-end street in need of repairs (which I thought might be DESERTED)

21 d ONSET = charge. Anag of non residents if you take away dinners !
27ac = Restated = set out again.
Can you give me answer to 9ac please?

[whirlowcroft]

Hi think I just did send you 9a, if you agree that's right
ie FOOTLING (foot part of verse- lin (line with something missing) then G)
but That means that 2d needs an O in the right place- so STOOD STILL (vs stand still)
However, I could easily be wrong.

thanks so much for your help though, and hope mine's useful.

[ricky2525]

Yes- thanks very much. Good night !
