Hi Sandra thanks for your answers. I agree with them all except 8d.
I think answer should be spelt as HANDLE to tie in with answer to 13a.I agree answer to clue 8d {Deal with old composer,you say} leads to HANDEL but it doesnt tie in with answer to 13a. {Entrap} Good luck in all your comping.
I still kept clue 13a as ENTRAP. But for 8d I entered it as HANDLE as Handel did not fit in with the answer for 13a. Sorry for any confusion I have caused it was unintentional.
The clue mentions composer which could lead to Handel. It also mentions ‘deal with’ which could lead to Handle and handle fitted in with answer for clue 13a. Sorry again for any cofusion
My suggested answers to 373. Please could someone confirm. Thank you. (Also, please bear in mind that on the quick clues a mistake has been made, they omitted no 8 down. I had to use 8 cryptic down).

Thank you Phyllis yes I do see that now Handel is correct therefore 13a is ? cannot work this one out.
I still kept clue 13a as ENTRAP. But for 8d I entered it as HANDLE as Handel did not fit in with the answer for 13a. Sorry for any confusion I have caused it was unintentional.
The clue mentions composer which could lead to Handel. It also mentions ‘deal with’ which could lead to Handle and handle fitted in with answer for clue 13a. Sorry again for any cofusion
I appreciate you getting back with the answer for the Handle situation thank you very much.
Could 13a possibly be then La or Le trap? Just a long shot or if you have come up with something it would be appreciated thank you.
