It's not a charity quiz and I get a lot of pleasure from entering Quizzes but these cryptic ones have me stumped. I was asked if I could find the answers and, because you guys are champions and enjoy quizzes as much as me, I thought you might like the challenge too. Very sorry if I've upset other quizzers on this page by my incompetence.
