One hammered in local I nut drunkenly (5,4)
I believe the answer is:
clout nail
'one hammered' is the definition.
I can't tell whether this defines the answer.
'local i nut drunkenly' is the wordplay.
'drunkenly' is an anagram indicator.
'local'+'i'+'nut'='localinut'
'localinut' anagrammed gives 'CLOUT-NAIL'.
'in' acts as a link.
Can you help me to learn more?
I've seen this clue in The Independent.
