Intended having excellent time (5)

Ross

I believe the answer is:

meant

I'm a little stuck... Click here to teach me more about this clue!

'intended' is the definition.
(to mean something is to intend it)

'excellent time' is the wordplay.
'excellent' becomes 'mean' (I can't explain this - if you can you should give a lot more credence to this answer).
'time' becomes 't' (abbreviation).
'mean'+'t'='MEANT'

'having' acts as a link.

Can you help me to learn more?

(Other definitions for meant that I've seen before include "Deliberate" , "Aimed" , "planned" , "Intended, had in mind" , "Had as intention or purpose" .)
