I'm simply happy to accept.

Here's one I found online.

Worms not harmful rolling around in knots (9, e's > 1)

N emat ODES
(emat = tame = not harmful, rolling around = indicator)
Took me quite a while to "get" that!

Found only 2 with e>1 (also nemertea).
Must be British worms since found them
in my Bradbury's crossword synonyms !!

Nematodes it is! You wormed your way into the right answer.

I had to look up nodes = knots. I guess it's pretty common but had never heard it used that way before.

Have this belt: ===[**WCF**]===

Merci M'sieu.

Merci muchly Den.

Type of sale for some bridge (7)

*Noodle disclaimer* - Not sure of the legality of this one - even after seeing the answer, it took me quite some time to justify the reasoning to it.

Auction (double def), on the basis that it is a type of sale and also means something in the game of bridge (I am not a bridge player, but It keeps coming up in crosswords...!)

Yeah Lex...I'm not a bridge player either so it had me stumped.

Thank you my antipodean friend.

One I quite liked in a recent paper:

Reg struggling to get in before time for tea (4,4) e>0

Reg is in there early and in disguise:

My wife's favourite tipple! Struggle into this:
===[**WCF**]===

Someone explain please for the slow ones at the back of the class.

EARL greY : gre = struggling Reg (EARLY = before time).

Thanks Lex.

Rip snortin' rate (4)

tear? double def?

Voila Madame: ===[**WCF**]===

rip = tear
rate = tear (snortin' = indicator) ...easy on the noodle

Merci Monsieur

I thought at first that "snortin'" wasn't needed, and it's a big word to just add in, but I think it works. To have a rip snortin' time is equivalent to being on a tear.

It means trouble for prisoners (7)

inmates (anagram of it means)

And the belt is freely yours! ===[**WCF**]===

I got the reg struggling as anagram of R E G fitting somewhere in there but "early" never occurred to me, even after seeing the solution.

Thanks Denis

Thank you Pandora
