Apologies QM1 if you are still on.

I have got LEADERETTE rather than Featurette.

I hope Mr Elderly is feeling better than he did last week. K

Thanks for your kind wishes KAY - no he is feeling no better, trouble with breathing. Hubby had it wrong.
Question Author
He is still stuck on 8D and 30A, says he will look again later. He says
Maybe 8D is LAPWING
Yes 8d is Lapwing. 30 Sor bit e

Incidentally I am male (and known as K ) as i note you address me as Kay. Best wishes to your husband K

Apologies - no offence meant.
Yes, Elderly, K is perfectly correct - naturally! - with 'leaderette'. It's an anagram (ie rubbished) of 'delete' plus 'trea' which is the first half of 'treatise'. A leaderette is a short newspaper article.
Question Author
Thanks everyone.
I suddenly thought: "I can't remember 'lapwing' as an answer." In fact, 8 down is LAUWINE. Endlessly praise is LAU(d) without the 'd'...victory is WIN...and European is E. Put these in the order suggested in the clue for LAUWINE which is an avalanche...ie a landslide.
I hope your husband hasn't inked in his answers!
