Question Author
Thank you Captain2, Baldric and Dahl.That was a help. !4a And 2d still a mystery but it looks like anagrams of canter (nectar trance) Am I going loopy? Sorry Baldric I forgot to put the amount of letters for that one (6-6)
What is the clue for 2d?
Question Author
FAO Captain2 There is no clue for 2d It just says see 14a
Could the second word be drinks?

2d, I just went by your number of dashes, 7 & 6
Question Author
Doesn't fit with 10a Parent but it certainly makes sense. I've missed one
19d I shall shortly bear somebody's initial misfortunes (4) i-l-
I'll-s
Could you re-write what you do have now for 14a please (I'm getting confused)
Question Author
Thank you Captain2 and all the rest of you who helped. I didn't like that one at all.
Question Author
Hi Captain2 the clues all seem to be connected
12a Gallop easily to prepare........ (6) I have canter
14a ....... delicious beverage to produce ecstasy in 2down (6)
2d See 14a (6)
So 14a is Nectar and 2d is Trance - is that how you read it?
Question Author
Yes Just because I noticed they were all anagrams of one another.
