Stuck on top left - help please. 1a British going into pub I preserve in centre of London (8). Ihave only 'b' as the fourth letter. Unless 5d. is Nero in which case the last letter of 1a. is 'n'.
Also 2d. Toughest opponent losing second rook, as recorded (8). I have only 'L' as the last letter.
13a. Article is inconsistent about current accommodation for fliers (8). Ihave ???a???s.
Thanks anyone.
