Main fare from priest boarding vehicle heading for Ipswich (8)
I believe the answer is:
calamari
'main fare' is the definition.
'calamari' can be an answer for 'fare' (calamari is a kind of food). I'm not certain of the 'main' bit.
'priest boarding vehicle heading for ipswich' is the wordplay.
'priest' becomes 'lama' (lama is a kind of priest).
'boarding' indicates putting letters inside.
'vehicle' becomes 'car' (car is a kind of vehicle).
'heading for' indicates taking the first letters.
The first letter of 'ipswich' is 'i'.
'lama' placed into 'car' is 'calamar'.
'calamar'+'i'='CALAMARI'
'from' acts as a link.
Can you help me to learn more?
(Other definitions for calamari that I've seen before include "Mollusc" , "Mediterranean cooked squid" , "Squid served as food" , "Battered squid rings" , "seafood" .)
