Creatures homes

[feebee102]

Hi I know I have posted this before under Alford Manor house but I'm still not sure about some of the questions.
All are relating to the dwellings of living creatures & the materials they are constructed with.


31. Furniture target ( 9) ............... ( thought of Warehouse )
35. Made for two (4)................. ( someone has already given me an answer of Bike saying it is a nest of wasps or bees but cannot find this on internet)
41. Some types may explode (5) ..................
45. Rail (4)................ (Pole ?)
49. Kind (4)................
80. A noise is reversed (3) .......( Given answer Nid but cannot find any thing for this)

Many many thanks to all you ABers for all your help.

80 nid is defined in Chambers (11th ed.) as an archaic word for a pheasant's nest or brood
