Point out the moral, as usual (6)

Ross

I believe the answer is:

normal

'as usual' is the definition.
(I've seen this before)

'point out the moral' is the wordplay.
'point' becomes 'n' (North).
'out' is an anagram indicator.
'moral' with letters rearranged gives 'ormal'.
'n'+'ormal'='NORMAL'

(Other definitions for normal that I've seen before include "Unexceptional" , "Popular" , "Ordinary, standard" , "Ordinary, not extraordinary" , "Ordinary, not unusual" .)

I've seen this clue in the Evening Standard.
