Many thanks JMR27

Yes - coupon - of course (now I've had it pointed out!)

Clue for 6down is: 'River with unpleasant smell: note the course'(5) and I'm pretty surethe answer is RHUMB but not sure why. Is there a dessert 'Rhumb Baba' or something similar?
6d Rhumb....R (river) HUM (unpleasant smell) B (note)

R HUM B - a course following a fixed line
Chambers definition of RHUMB:-

a loxodromic curve: any point of the compass. .... rhumb-line, rhumb-course, rhumb-sailing
