I added these to my other message but am not sure how anyone will know they are there! Sorry - am quite new here and still trying to learn how things are done. Hope I haven't broken any rules.

Can anyone help point me in the right direction with a couple more please - am a bit baffled.
They are all things associated with water.

1. Under water betting shop? (5)
2. Sounds like a long mournful moan (5)
3. Awarded first place? (8)
4. Tired from smoking? (6)

Thank you.

Thanks ladyalex ... I am so grateful for your help and am glad you don't mind. I look at some clues and they might as well be written in Japanese.
I'm sure you'll find most people on here are very happy to help anyone who asks.
Here are a couple of sites that I have found very helpful with crosswords and quizzes:
http://www.onelook.com/
http://www.utsire.com/

Good luck and keep on coming back and asking.

Rock garden clue : Seaweed?
Question Author
Thanks TheWinner ... I couldn't come up with anything so do appreciate your help.
Am still baffled over these and would be grateful if anyone can put me right.

1. Someone who throws things high? (7) I thought of pitcher but am sure it is wrong.
2. A mobile shower? (7)
3. One on the fiddle! (5) I thought this might be something to do with Alice in Wonderland but have googled my socks off and think I am on the wrong track.
2. A mobile shower is Dolphin. (as in Dolphin showers).
3. Could this be Bream ? (as in Julian Bream who plays the violin/fiddle)?
I think number 1 is Lobster (as in you lob something if you throw it).
Question Author
Thanks for your help TheWinner. I've put "Bream" for another answer as I he is a classical guitarist so might need to keep thinking on this one. (I just Googled to check I was along the right lines). I didn't think to check if there are any fiddlers with appropriate sounding names so will do that right now!

Many thanks.
One on the fiddle could be Shark (another name for a crook or someone on the "fiddle"
Question Author
Gosh mazie of course it is! Thank you very much indeed for your help ... was just overwhelmed by the number of violinists there are out there and was imagining an afternoon trawing through them.
Having another think about the rock garden one, could it be spoiled by a SCALLOPed edge?
Question Author
Hi TheWinner - many thanks for that suggestion. Sorry not to have replied before now - didn't see your message.
I wonder if that answer would want a different letter count maybe? I've put the seaweed and hope for the best.
VERY many thanks to all who helped me.
