Bonjour tout le monde!

Hope you are not too hot to keep on writing great clues!

Thanks for your response so far - 23 clues, that's nice -
A few more would be even better .......!
I would like a couple of parsings so far please:

Djawhufc @ 2 - (Welcome to clueless - is this your first go?)
Skyewalker @ 20
Just confirmations really, in case I miss some hidden meaning!

Hi Pigale. Djawhufc is an old Forum hand, whom I remember from many years ago. Think its double definition - Novel -volume and Volume - loudness which should be restricted in a library?
Skyewalker at 20 may be Voe - bay with Lum - chimney inside?

Hi, Pigale.

AB and Skyewalker, thank you so much for your explanations.
A couple of new words to me - voe and lum which I did not see
when looking for synonyms of chimney!
