An award taken by Scottish river along with other things? (3,2,5)
I believe the answer is:
and so forth
'along with other things?' is the definition.
(I've seen this before)
'an award taken by scottish river' is the wordplay.
'award' becomes 'DSO' (Distinguished Service Order).
'taken by' means one lot of letters go next to another.
'scottish river' becomes 'forth' (I've seen this before).
'an'+'dso'+'forth'='AND SO FORTH'
(Other definitions for and so forth that I've seen before include "implies others of the same type" , "etc." , "imagine what follows" , "Along with other things" , "Et cetera" .)
