One less mobile in the Hebrides, for example (5)
I believe the answer is:
isles
'one less mobile in the hebrides for example' is the definition.
I can't tell whether this defines the answer.
'one less mobile in' is the wordplay.
'one' becomes 'i' (Roman numeral).
'mobile' indicates anagramming the letters.
'in' means one lot of letters goes inside another.
'less' anagrammed gives 'sles'.
'i' placed inside 'sles' is 'ISLES'.
Can you help me to learn more?
(Other definitions for isles that I've seen before include "Hebrides, perhaps" , "The road to these is a wellknown Scottish song" , "Islands" , "- - of Scilly" , "eg Fiji and Tonga" .)
