Thanks, jj109 and NAC, I had 24C, 31B and 36 C, but could not
parse them. For 13A, I imagined the "of F" ( off = away= ELSEWHERE?). Like you, I do not understand the B, but a wild idea comes to me also, if the B sounds like Bee=noisy=loud? - Interesting ideas for this Christmas day to mull over with a fine glass of wine.

I have found "leadish" but not "leadishness", but I do not have a Chambers!
