My last one: I think I know the answer but can't parse:

19D Pen St. (4,2)

_ H _ T _ P

I'm thinking it must be SHUT UP (which can mean pen) but what's the St got to do with it?

“st” as an interjection can mean “hush”

Really? I never knew that, I always use 'Sh'. You live and learn! Thanks Jono.

I agree, ‘st’ sounds rather more abrupt than ‘sh’ to me. Anyway, glad I could help
