26 down:Minor raised with trace of Louisiana Accent there (5)
d???a

29 across: Divert with a story about Etna exploding (8)
?l?e???e
Thanks!
Re previous postings Mail logic is hard to follow!
29a I think ia Alienate - A Lie (a story) about (surrounding) an anagram of Etna.
Although, Alienate = Divert is a bit ropey.
I can't see why Delta is tha answer apart from "Louisiana Accent there" but I think you are right.
