HI folks,

Here are some cryptics from the game I am playing. I think it is a British game(helpful in solving some clues in the future).

1. Sam dreamt about European port(9)
2. Trash was put by the exit initially.(5)
3. Just revenge - sense I'm crazy (7)
4. Cucumber is a bit tougher, kinked (7)
5. Lizard, good with coke, oddly (5)
6. Father's attempt to get pie-crust (6)
7. Help in class is trainee (6)
8. Takes a chance, right, and skies off (5)
9. Climber's aid gives muscular pain(no turning back) (7)
10. Edwin's upset about Lloyds' first fraud (7).
11. Begin, s-sweet thing! (5)
12. Inexperienced band intended to limit urban sprawl. (5,4)

Enjoy!
