7a you can have 'thingumabob' or 'thingumajig'.
Both bob and jig are dances?????
2d at a guess I would favour 'rangy' - orangy with no 'round'.

thanks - have you got any idea about 7d - tipsiest?

thin (poor) + gum (seal) + a jig

[r.antioch]

Explanation has already been given - in case you missed it -
Upset = tip
Naps = siesta(or siestas) - then cut it short to 'siest'
= tipsiest???
The synonymous connection between tired & emotional to the answer is rather stretched to the bounds of vagueness
IMHO.
Also, feel the clue is poorly contructed - nap would be better than naps.

r.antioch - 'tired & emotional' is (quite) well-known Private Eye speak for tipsy !
