Avoiding extremely envious accountant with bank code? Good! (8)
I believe the answer is:
escaping
'avoiding' is the definition.
(escaping is a kind of avoiding)
'extremely envious accountant with bank code? good' is the wordplay.
'extremely' says to hollow out the word (remove centre letters) (only the extremes of the word are used).
'accountant' becomes 'CA' (abbreviation for chartered accountant).
'with' means one lot of letters go next to another.
'bank code? good' becomes 'ping' (I can't explain this - if you can you should give a lot more credence to this answer).
'envious' with its middle taken out is 'es'.
'es'+'ca'+'ping'='ESCAPING'
Can you help me to learn more?
(Other definitions for escaping that I've seen before include "Fleeing" , "Getting free" , "Breaking free" , "Getting away from confinement" , "Breaking out of confinement" .)
