14dn Not as sunny (degree less) outside to study here in Cumbria (9) U???????? ULLSWATER ? 13dn Buffoon halted motorbike on a 1 in 5 (9) H???E???? 16ac Cleaner all set to exercise like fitness guru (7,5) ?????E? ????S
Took me a while to see why Ullswater was right (not as sunny= Duller. Remove D for degrees to give ULLER; put this around SWAT (not Swot?) for study)
But how doe we get from swot to swat- or is it an accepted alternative spelling?
