Jandel..to get help it is best to put in the clue and any letters you may have.

The clue for 26a) 6 here on shingle maybe where this is heard. (7,7)

In this case the 6 refers to your answer at 6a the second word is an anagram of shingle.

If you just want the answer that can be given. Hope this helps and if this is your first time welcome to the forum.
