37- Question Stanley about last Yorkshire canyon (13) (3 words).
Neither of your suggestions takes account of the wordplay. The Question was How. I am not sure exactly how the wordplay works for the rest but it involves Stan- see if you can get it.
'll try to explain a few more tomorrow if I get chance. Mamyalynne's advice is good- await the answers, see if you can work out how they were arrived at and ask a few on here if you still can't see them
