Gathering custom (10)
I believe the answer is:
convention
I believe this clue is a double definition.
'gathering' is the first definition.
(I know that convention is a type of gathering)
'custom' is the second definition.
(thesaurus)
(Other definitions for convention that I've seen before include "Meeting" , "assembly" , "See 14" , "Compact" , "normal practice" .)
