EVening :-)

Got the theme but stuck on a couple of v long answer clues..any help please?

9d Sort of lite unsalted sausages (13)
2d. Undisciplined cosmetician led cause to confront western ideas (13)

Any help appreciated. thanks :-)

Both are anagrams -I think the first one (the definition is 'sausages') needs another letter, the other one loses one.

occidentalism

andouillettes

Thanks so much...am just about there (I hope)

couple to go

32a Old lullaby to clam disheartened infant (7)

42a o???? apparent in quotidian fungal stages

For 6a I have STERNAL but not sure what the extra letter is? clue was Tail attached to almost half of bone

Thanks again... Lisa :-)

16a -my mum used to sing 'rockaby baby' to me with the answer instead of 'rockaby'. Think about a four letter for what you say to calm someone.

Sternal - within the ambit of the special instructions, AL is almost half. STERN completes it.

Can't remember the other off the top of head - sorry!

I meant 32a of course.

i have it thanks :-) thanks u!

Lisa - if you're into the poet in this one, today's Guardian Genius also involves one of his.

ah great thanks!

still not sure what the additional letter is on 6a tho?
