Aaargh! 'Your' should have been 'You're'.

A few still to be solved.
A letter may be missing from wordplay.
Hints on :

Really nice people read out title for woman (6)

Smallest amounts dwarf old ladies (6)

One term at Heriot-Watt after St Andrews perhaps (4)

Thanks,

The unclued looks like a painter?

1. The definition is 'really nice people'. 'Read out' = a usual device (not involving homophones!) and then 'title for woman'.

2. Smallest amounts is the definition. Dwarf+ then a short word for 'old lady' (singular, your plural's wrong).

Yes to the unclued stuff.

Thanks, got there but still not sure how the rest connects with the unclued entry. Probably missing something obvious?

Thanks malone.
Was positioning both wrong. Now have them,
Was watching Amelie (Audrey Tautou) on TV so typed ladies instead of lady.

Still not sure of Heriot-Watt. Unit? Why St Andrews? U+?+I+T.
I for one and T for term.

St Andrews is where Prince William and Kate M went to …, it's pretty prestigious. I think the T is from the end/term of Heriot-Watt, but I could be wrong (and I don't think it really matters.)

Thanks malone.
I have the nine cells. I have the unclued.
I only have 11 of the 13 missing letters.

I am not sure of how to redistribute the 13.
