Some posers from the most perplexing crossword that I know of:-
4 Down - "A man from Hull on leave" (4) H--O
-is it HOMO?
13 Down - "Helper taking sulphur away" (5) A-I-E
25 Acr. - "Rash runners going back east" (5) S-A-E

13 aside

S inside aide

4 Seen as Hugo

25 Spate - Taps back +E

25 spate

Many thanks, Zozozo and Mamya! Was at one time going to put SCARE, which is the back of "CARS" going east + east! And so I guess Hull must be abbreviated as "HU" at times - would never have thought they'd need to shorten it
further, being that, as Hull, it's already shortened.

HU = postcode for Hull
