As one appears in lounges, often? (9)
I believe the answer is:
regularly
'often?' is the definition.
(I've seen this before)
'as one appears in lounges' is the wordplay.
I cannot quite see how this works, but
'as' could be 'eg' (I've seen this in other clues) and 'eg' is present in the answer.
'one' could be 'a' (a thing is one thing) and 'a' is found in the answer.
This explanation may well be incorrect...
Can you help me to learn more?
(Other definitions for regularly that I've seen before include "Steadily, unvarying" , "at the same time" , "How shoes will appear in schooners" , "At fixed intervals" , "Evenly" .)
