17a. Yonks Americans = Yanks, change the a for the o of oxygen.
13a looks like SCOURGE, but I don't really get the wordplay...


Do you think 17a might be YONKS ???
Question Author
Thanks - have got the 17a now it is YONKS.
I can't see the word play with SCOURGE
You have been given the wordplay in your earlier post. You really should not be wasting others' time by asking twice.
s=small
bottle=cour(a)ge. .with "a" (adult) away
13a. Yes scourge. small = S, bottle = courage minus the A which stands for adult. (sorry, not very good at explaining!!)

Thanks everyone help is appreciated
For Catron's benefit - I posted again before my earlier one had been answered and i don't really see that there was any need for you to be so unpleasant.
You cannot even wait 30 minutes for your answers? Are you always that impatient? It is unpleasant in my eyes to waste time from others needlessly.
