[Sadsack1980]

Trappist? Right gone wrong somewhere :0) thanks for all your help. Appreciated.

[Sadsack1980]

8d must be DESERT (as in defect)

[shoota]

You'll have to give us the full clue Sad as we don't have your crossword.

[shooty]

sorry to be a pain, but desire also makes sence.

[shooty]

[shoota]

Does Trappist put a 'T' at the end of 8d?
What letters do you now have?

[shooty]

trappist is correct shoota
trap (carriage + anag of tips)

[Sadsack1980]

Want to change sides (6) - E - - - T
I get DESERT as T must be correct because TRAPPIST is fitting in nicely
