Bit stuck in top right corner. Yachtsmen moved by these seasonal tales. 10. Have some letters in and a possible word but can't parse it if it is correct. Any help please but no straight answers. Thanks

The season isn't one of the "four". Standard crossword "tales".

Thanks Chrise but you are always way ahead of me in the intelligence quota. Your help is almost as obscure as the clue.

Peter, the definition is 'Yachtsmen moved by these'. Six letter time of year, four letter 'tales' (very common in crosswords).

I have an answer for Call for small missile to tip unfavourable balance which I can't parse.

Stuck on SW corner though.

15a Note on a cross in register:free of charge (3-7) I have ??n ?a?u?l? Of course the a might be wrong.

13d A Parisienne, fading away when imprisoned, not improving (10) I have ?????f?i?g

19a Key was first put in the wrong way (3) ??l

Any help appreciated

Hi exlibris, I think your u is wrong in 15ac.

19ac 'key' is def. Not the unlocking kind though.

I'm also struggling to parse 3 down.

15 your u is wrong
13 starts with a French word
19 key is the definition
