        I made a minor edit in 6A to improve the surface reading. "A bit of fishy accountancy" becomes "A fishy bit of accountancy".

          Thank you for the explanations. Even after solving the puzzle I'm often wondering about the second mechanism. These explanations will help me look for mechanisms in future cryptic puzzles.
