Thanks FJ and congrats BBM (could I have a parse too, please?)

Thanks for the clip, FJ. 20 years ago my daughter was a great fan of Robyn Hitchcock (and I liked him too). She participated in an online discussion group about his work - unfortunately he had to be referred to as HitchcoOk, as any post including "cock" was blocked!

Well done Marty and thanks FJ - I tried to base a clue around Don Henley but couldn`t quite do it!

I can see push = HEAVE
leaving NLY ... possibly only not started!

There wasn't much discussion of a particular Humberside town either! (I had spelled it out, but thought better of it....)

Brendon re Ginge's clue
Supposedly cat means to be sick, to heave, then only loses its head
I hope that helps

Thanks fiery chuffed to prevail against so many good clues.

Tempting - def (delightful etc.)
to
push = HEAVE
for - link to
replacement of uninitiated - remove first letter and insert remainder
individual = (o)NLY

Thanks for all your good wishes

Marty
