Took a seat in Tulsa town (3)
I believe the answer is:
sat
'took a seat' is the definition.
(I've seen this before)
'in tulsa town' is the wordplay.
'in' indicates the answer is hidden within the clue.
'SAT' can be found hidden inside 'tulsa town'.
(Other definitions for sat that I've seen before include "Perched" , "Relaxed" , "nearly half a day" , "Rested" , "Used a chair" .)
