[Blob] Thanks, once I spotted cherub (more by accident), it fell into place. If I can get my brain in gear, I'd supply a clue. I seem to have lost touch with cryptics just lately. Haven't done a crossword in months.

Is everyone ignoring my last clue on purpose??

[Darren] I don't think so. I've just looked it up.
Punctuation, endlessly one group (9)

That'll be COMMUNITY = COMM(A) + UNITY or I'll pawn my shawl.

OK, time for another rude one folks.

Flatulence might raise the temperature when receiving head from call-girl -- coat! (11)

More a windcheater methinks - (explanation : Flautlence = wind, raise temp = heater, receiving head (first letter) of call girl = C, inserted wind-c-heater)

That was quick. Too easy, clearly...

[Blob] It's MACHIAVELLIAN (MAN surrounding A CHILLI, all surrounding AVE).

[Raak] Are you refereing to Io, a moon of Jupiter?

[Darren] It sure is - well done. I presume the pod rather gave it away, but I couldn't think of a reasonable alternative.
I'm beginning to wonder if the use of <font="white"> is really necessary - coz. once they're solved we're moving onto the next one. What does everyone think ?
