I'm finding this such a struggle. Ones I can't parse (where to start?):
47a Winding up following chief, hardly resting (10).
Chillaxing?
48d One who's left note upset timber producer (5)
Alder?

As for "Maeterlinck" as an answer (which I only got by cheating) who the hell has heard of that?

StrangelyBrown, and don't just take our word for it, here's what Chambers says...

Pain - … a tiresome person.

Bore - … a person that wearies.
