New hit list prepared? Blow me! (3,7)
I believe the answer is:
tin whistle
'blow me' is the definition.
The definition suggests a singular noun which matches the answer.
'new hit list prepared?' is the wordplay.
'prepared?' indicates an anagram.
'new'+'hit'+'list'='newhitlist'
'newhitlist' with letters rearranged gives 'TIN WHISTLE'.
Can you help me to learn more?
(Another definition for tin whistle that I've seen is " Cheap, six-holed metal flageolet".)
I've seen this clue in The Telegraph.
Want a hint initially instead of a full solution?
