Attlee drunk with duke in boozer (7)
I believe the answer is:
ladette
'boozer' is the definition.
Both the definition and answer are singular nouns.
Perhaps there's a link between them I don't understand?
'attlee drunk with duke' is the wordplay.
'drunk with' indicates an anagram.
'duke' becomes 'd' (abbreviation).
'attlee' anagrammed with 'd' can make 'LADETTE'.
'in' is the link.
Can you help me to learn more?
(Other definitions for ladette that I've seen before include "Young woman with a loutish lifestyle?" , "Foul-mouthed, beer-swilling girl" , "Coarse young woman" , "lively girl" , "boisterous madam" .)
