Hi there,
Have the following clues, anyone got any ideas...
(Have done most of the puzzle, just got a few left).

**Old slide instrument to fire at target endlessly (7)

**Beneath it's crust the earth may cloak one (6)

**Mafia boss standing by the font at baptism (9)

**What went to the wall was bad news to the dog (9)

Thanks :)

Hi there,
The third entry on your list is probably GODFATHER
Still looking at the others.
Jerry

And the first on the list is SACK(fire)BUT(t) target
Will keep looking.
Jerry

Do you have any letters in for 2 and 4?

Think the second one will be MANTLE

Hey Jerry, thanks :)
What a legend!! I can't get them very easily - my Dad has been doing it, so I was looking online for some help and thought I would try here.

?a?t?? for the beneath its crust..

we got that other one

other ones
**boiler might take unfinished letter amiss ( t?a-???t?l )

**the kind of drunked that swallows last of beer ( s?r? )

Thanks Mike

We got the others now too :)

Thanks for both of your help :) Will visit again when we get stuck.

Thanks :)

Hi again,
I think the final L may be incorrect,as it is
an anagram of make & letter minus the "s" to make TEA KETTLE. The other one is SORT a sot is a drunkard.
Hope this helps.
Jerry
