Blushing is pretty good - but game anyway! (3,6)
I believe the answer is:
red grouse
'game anyway' is the definition.
'red grouse' can be an answer for 'game' (I've seen this before). I'm unsure of the 'anyway' bit.
'blushing is pretty good' is the wordplay.
'blushing' becomes 'red' (blushing makes someone's face go red).
'is pretty good' becomes 'grouse' (I can't justify this - if you can you should believe this answer much more).
'red'+'grouse'='RED GROUSE'
'but' acts as a link.
Can you help me to learn more?
(Other definitions for red grouse that I've seen before include "Moorland bird" , "Game bird" .)
