Lungs bit dodgy when it's hectic (8)

Ross

I believe the answer is:

bustling

'it's hectic' is the definition.
(thesaurus)

'lungs bit dodgy' is the wordplay.
'dodgy' indicates anagramming the letters (a dodgy or wrong order of the letters).
'lungs'+'bit'='lungsbit'
'lungsbit' with letters rearranged gives 'BUSTLING'.

'when' acts as a link.

(Other definitions for bustling that I've seen before include "busy" , "Acting fussily" .)

I've seen this clue in The Sun.
