Ev 1228

1a They're found in school, endlessly leaping (5)
1d One gets food off another canoe, travelling round Thailand and Australia (8)

This next one has wordplay only:
Might he repair women's riding coats? (12, 2 words)

Sorry no letters to speak of as it's a jigsaw fit so need a lot of answers before I can fit them in...

[pomona]

I have 1a now - cohos

[Lie-in King]

1d Ectozoan (a parasite) - anag 'canoe' (round) 'T(hailand) + Oz'

[pomona]

Thanks for that one Lie-in .... tried that in the anagram solver and nothing came up.

I'm a bit confused.

The puzzle is said to be a jigsaw which to me means that 1a & 1d
share the same starting letter.
From the answers given that doesn't appear to be the case.

Is my understanding of jigsaw's flawed?

[DocHH]

Mampara, there is not a 1a.

[pomona]

sorry to confuse ... i just numbered them 1a and 1d as they were the first in each list...

Can anyone help with:
Picked up what's needed to call Venus (5) ?EL??
Upright academician's off his trolley, by the sound of it (6) A?R???

the above undefined clue is now ???E????I???

[Mampara]

I was going by the original post which gave 1a & 1d as clues.

[pomona]

Finished now... thanks for looking

Some help with the riding coats would be good! Best wishes
