Silly boy,

Have you been on your hols? You haven't been answering my threads.

I thought I had upset you in some way!!!!

The message in my last thread was certainly true today.

Cheers.

AJT,

Need your help, please. I can not fathom the SW corner...

16d) The sound of a small stream _ R _ O _ _ (6) - possibly BROOKE

19d) Japanese ware showing craft, work taking a different direction S _ I _ _ _ (6) - I've seen others comment that this could be SHIPPO

and finally...

24a) One getting bothered about politicians (6)
Could be E _ P _ O _

I think the E above (from Brooke) could be an S but, I'm stumped.

Cheers
PB

brooke and empson are two of the eight poets - forget the other one

it was shippo

Ixion,

Nice one and many thanks. Never heard of Empson, I'll have to look deeper.

Cheers
PB

Hi PezBuin - I'm sorry I missed your earlier request directed to me - I've been in front of the other box! You seem to have all the poets now - I'd never heard of Empson either - found him on a list. Hope you've got the lot.

Only one clue left and would love to finish it:
18A Black as the one who was jailed in America?
(-R-S- B-R-N)
And could you please explain why - I'm fairly new to cryptic puzzles!
Many thanks
