_ I _ _ _ _ _ (Tiddler?)

6a) Lying to get drink in Spain (6)

no letters

9a) Offer things for sale to English Admiral (up to 7 letters long, 2nd letter is 'A' )

21a) Note viol played in ambiance of Hadrian's Villa (7)

{? anagram of Note viol) - Tivoleon / Tivolone

[Muffet]

1a minnow

[burnhal]

1a is MINNOW- short time =min- present = now

[teacher1]

21a can't be an anagram if it is 7 letters !

[Muffet]

21a. Are you sure it's 7? Should be Tivoli.

[teacher1]

Hadrian's villa is Tivoli - but this is 6 letters !

[burnhal]

if it is 8 letters then i would go for tivoleon- hadrians villa is at Tivoli in Italy

[Muffet]

9a could be Hawke.

[kayakamina]

6 Supine....Sup+in+e

[kayakamina]

9 Hawke....Hawk (sell) +e

[yapisle]

thank you to all - beginning to sort this puzzle - added some more 'black squares' ... so, it is Tivoli

minnow fits in

trying to get other answers to fit to Supine

[kayakamina]

7d Pearly Queen will fit on the P in Supine.
