singer, look at the 3-letter words, keeping the title in mind...

buzzb,

thank you - light has finally dawned! Doh!

buzzb,and many thanks from me, all clear now

Thanks for all the help here. It would be difficult to find the reference in Brewers without help as the two relevant tables are well hidden.
Can anyone help me justify two answers -
5D Here you could crawl about 500m to finish (4) I can see how LIDO is defined by the first 4 words but can't see what's going on in the rest of the clue.
49A Huntsmen square behind doctor shunning plant fibres (7) JAEGERS but how is the answer obtained?
Thanks and good luck to all fellow solvers!

In Chambers check LI, and look closely at entries for JAEGER.

unclued, li=approx third mile, do=finish
jaegers=huntsmen,Dr jaeger (who shunned plant fibres) + s(square)
leon
(using chambers and bradfords)

sorry gem 94,your post wasnt there when I started typing

Thanks both of you. I now have a full grid and the word under the grid. No excuse now for avoiding the housework until Friday!!
