Thanks, Matakari. Glad you've got to the 'wanting hints' stage - we could have ended up filling in the whole grid!
20. New +three letter abbreviation for a month + a usual two letter abbreviation for 'gold', that part being reversed.
13 Your I is wrong.

Neveracrossword

43. The usual short word for 'hip', modern + a four letter composer (famous for his Silence).
40. A double definition - the first meaning is Lounge, the second is something you could put at the end of a text.Your Z is wrong.

20 moth is the defn
N for new + 3 letter month + 2 letter synonym/symbol for gold reversed
