EV 936

A fit of the screaming thingies - if that goes in 6dn then the Siberian lake goes in 16ac but then 8dn doesn't fit with any of the answers in its cluster. What am I doing wrong?

EV 931 - Pondlife by Jaques

A pleasant Sunday morning puzzle; one I don't think will trouble our regulars too much. The setter's advice on the use of a pencil for the first grid filling is superfluous to me as I always do the EV...
