Thanks K

An enjoyable puzzle and not as lengthy as Lavatch
wants us to think.

I'm stuck in the top left corner. Another cup of coffee, I think

1a is in Chambers but as a variant.

Thank you, but I'm nowhere near that - I'm trying to make "ballades" fit, but no!

NOTE

The 'Buds' in 1d are not the flowering type!

Thank you again - I've been thinking "pals" or suchlike. I'm dim today!

Thank you K - got 1d - I've always spelt it with an r, not l.

All done - thank you, K,

Glad to be to be able to help.
I'm a newcomer on here as I usually hang out over on Answerbank.
The people here seem friendly and I'd like to visit again but I'm finding it a bind having to enter my e-mail address every time - is that necessary or am I being stupid?
My daughter tipped me off about the site and I'm pleased she did.
Cheers

K
