Perhaps Chesterfield rector gets to date? (2,3)
I believe the answer is:
so far
'to date?' is the definition.
(thesaurus)
'perhaps chesterfield rector' is the wordplay.
I cannot really see how this works, but
'chesterfield' could be 'sofa' (I've seen this in another clue) and 'sofa' is located in the answer.
'rector' could be 'r' and 'r' is found in the answer.
No letters remain.
This may be the basis of the clue (or it may be nonsense).
'gets' acts as a link.
Can you help me to learn more?
(Other definitions for so far that I've seen before include "To this point" , "Up until the present moment" , "to a certain degree" , "till now" .)
