A month in Israel or weekend with Elvis all over the place (6)

Ross

I believe the answer is:

kislev

I'm a little stuck... Click here to teach me more about this clue!

'a month' is the definition.
(Kislev is an example)

'weekend with elvis all over the place' is the wordplay.
'weekend' becomes 'k' (I've seen this in other clues).
'with' is a charade indicator (letters next to each other).
'all over the place' indicates an anagram.
'elvis' is an anagram of 'islev'.
'k'+'islev'='KISLEV'

'in israel or' is the link.
I am not very happy about this link. Some or all of it may be part of another bit of the clue.

Can you help me to learn more?

(Other definitions for kislev that I've seen before include "cool period in Israel" , "period when Hanukkah starts" .)

I've seen this clue in the Irish Times (Crosaire) and the Irish Times.
