    Feeling rather kindly disposed towards humanity today, so here's a goodly scattering of letters.

    Very, very close, Mr A. So close your own clue needn't be changed, but my first word has five letters and a couple of yours between w and k shouldn't be there. The rest is spot on.

    Close Sam.. very close.. so just the last word is wrong but sure close enough is good enough. You may run in to the swear filter on the right answer anyway.

    So, guessing we're stalled on a clue beginning with Cheating Derry hoorbags...?

    Cheating? Derry Hoorbags? Blow me, No.42 is tempted in the city of Londonderry in the county of Derry. (7,9,7)

    Thought the Derry/Londonderry and blow bits were obvious enough...

    William Jefferson Clinton attacks Serbian mercenary with tool in US state? (8) I get No.42 and blow, but haven't a notion where Derry comes into it.

    Arkansas – was once, but is no longer. Seems likes somebody nicked a name. (3, 4, 2, 11)

    (I think it was on Clinton’s first visit to Ireland and everybody wondered what he would call Derry. He got round all the diplomatic problems by referring to the City of Londonderry in the County of Derry, or some such construction. The cute h**r!!)
