1a The trouble about a Spaniard is he puts pleasure before work. I thought the answer was "hedonist" being he don is t (the trouble =anagram of the, a Spaniard is Don +is).
However that would mean 4d starts with an S . 4d Here one comes close to the main form of English. I think the answer is estuary as in estuary English and an estuary is close ot the sea=main.
Where I am wrong, please?
