The best math you can learn is how to calculate the future cost of current decisions.

Jackanapes = mischievous child - j (just started) + (on) a + anagram (mess) of pancakes monky

A word I've not seen or heard for a while!

OED seems to be used quite often in crosswords over here to mean dictionary, but then it is a British dictionary: I thought that the sneaky part of this clue was the misdirection in using Latin dictionary to mean LOED.

In any event, you can now locate this about your person:

Apologies for the lateness of the hints oops

Direct on the right
One synonym, one anagram
cvcvc cvccv
Wordplay 3+7
"Volume" does not refer to loudness...

Extra clue:

This was set by a Brit - our transatlantic cousins would probably define it as cvcvc cvcvc whistle

Still no takers - I fear the noodles are softening nicely

Looking for a 3-letter synonym for "youngster" which has a u in the middle, adding the adjusted letters of "met Eric" (not necessarily a true anagram in the strictest sense) and splitting these 10 letters to give two words which are a volume. And the second word is spelt differently is the US to what it is in the UK

Netflix needs to stop asking if I'm still watching and start asking if I've switched the laundry over yet
