Firstly my apologies - the answers are all 'seasonish'.
My outstanding questions are
1. Midwinter is ... (5)
2. Cold white timber (9)
3. Candied spice (12)
4, A cold heap (9)
Plus half a dozen more. This is my firstish time of using this site, so still finding my way around the practicalities and the etiquette. Thanks in advance for your patience and help.

The clue for your number 3 is CANDID spice. The first word is the clue.

Thanks everybody. Frankincense and Bleak are the two that gave most trouble. Sorry I didn't initially give the quiz theme - season-ish - will try to get it right next time. A Happy New Year to you all.
