Many thanks shaneystar
Could 26d be Norm - No R.M. (a Royal Marine is a jolly) and also short for Norman..
Checking Chambers, one meaning of norm is a type.
Thanks for this Marsh.
I wasn't too sure about Nerd myself but was all I could think of.
Must invest in a Chambers dictionary.!

It's one of the essentials of life.
