12, Oversees, sounds like overseas.

4, Carriage is "brougham".
Queen "Mab" reversed around "rough".

16 Starveling, a Shakespeare character - anagram of ''grave isn't l(eft)'

10, a guess!
"Colossus".
"C" for Cuba.
The bid is a "solo" reversed (possibly at cards)?
"US" for America, reversed.
"S" for succeeded.

Hello, Malone!

Hence I said "guess"!
I am pondering that in mountaineering, a lone attempt/bid to scale a peak can be called a "solo", but still not confident the parse is correct!

Good morning to you both and many thanks.

Good morning, Diablos.

Google tells me that Solo is a bid by which a player undertakes to win five tricks in solo whist.
