A punishment for public disorder is an "asbo". (Anti-Social Behaviour Order).

Ah thank you Mr. Thompson; that is a new one on us. Evidently we must get out and about more.

Whereas ABO is merely the Association of British Orchestras...

What about this one then?!......

Initially young, devoted, newly engaged yob preceding German capital, enclosed by needle and thread marks a detestation of Shostakovich. (6, 4)
Where do you get the 'r' from in that? I get 'Sydney Gew' (also, shouldn't it end with 'one who detests Shostakovich'? A person can't be a detestation).

Quite right Ian! Quite right - and I woke up in the early hours thinking of that missing 'r' too. I was, though, thinking of the MB name rather than the person.

Andy,

I get "ypunip".

That doesn't mean anything, does it?

Wink

Wields a stick against calf? (10)

This one is seriously interfering with my sleeping patterns, Mr S. Any chance of having one teeny letter perhaps as a fingerhold?

No one seems yet actually to have suggested Кондра́шин, which we suppose given the extraordinary liberty of some of the transcriptions of Russian names we have encountered could at a pinch be rendered Cyril Contrashin not Kondrashin.

Looks like Schoenberg to me, but as this is not my sort of game ...

No, no, martle, that's the reply number, which is 1 less than the message number would be. Wink
