Gawdelpus, no 2 is a subtractive anagram. Take 'sharer' out and you'll get (a brand of) tea.

1 A double definition. The 'seaweed' is fairly common in crosswords, the 'long and limp', Scottish word, was new to me.

Thanks, Gawdelpus, glad those helped. That last one is another subtractive anagram, leading to a proper name, an area of Belfast.

I was interested in the answer to the seaweed one, and found this site - it might be useful in the future!

The name of the port is the middle 4 letters of the name of a priest of Apollo, apparently (and no, I had never heard of it!)

A****s the Hyperborean, according to Mr Google. Rather farther fetched that Doc usually comes up with.

Hope you're enjoying a very well-earned rest, jeg.
