Hello again,

Your help please for these stumpers.

1d Household truth, since man is mortal (6) - - - a - e
3d Muscle in part of foot (6) - - - e - s
9a Chap lacking prime bit of meat made cooked fillet (6) a - r - e -

Thanks to all those who are better than me at this.

3d Soleus

[aeronut]

3d biceps ? pes representing foot and biceps is a muscle although not in the foot.
1d menage

[aeronut]

Since the soleus attaches to the heel I think Octogenarian has the answer here.

9a Is your R correct? Could be Anadem - fillet

(M)an +* made

[billgadd]

Thank you all. My "R" was wrong Kayakamina, silly me!

1d - Menage

The full clue for 3d is: Muscle in part of foot not working properly.
Therefore octogenarian's answer is correct.
Part of foot = sole
Not working properly = us (unserviceable).
