Latest reports of cheerful romantic meetings (7)
I believe the answer is:
updates
'latest reports' is the definition.
(an update is a new piece of information)
'cheerful romantic meetings' is the wordplay.
'cheerful' becomes 'up' (up can mean cheerful or upbeat).
'romantic meetings' becomes 'dates' (date is a kind of meeting. I am not sure about the 'romantic' bit.).
'up'+'dates'='UPDATES'
'of' acts as a link.
Can you help me to learn more?
(Other definitions for updates that I've seen before include "Moves with the times" , "Fresh bulletins" , "Brings to current status" , "Revises to current status" , "Modernises" .)
