sarumite - thanks so much for trying so quickly to help me out but 2D does seem to start P as the across clue giving the P is 'Record attempt to suppress second hanging' which constructs nicely as TAPE (record) S (second) TRY (attempt) i.e. TAPESTRY.
Hence the clue I can't do anyway re US city and the inability to work out PINEAPPLE satisfactorily.
PS I think you're one of the few still logged in!

Sarumite - you're a star. My brain just wasn't picking up the right cryptic line of enquiry.
I can now get off to bed and just hope in the morning I'll get a Eureka moment to satisfy me how the pineapple clue is constructed!
