TON
A M MAN
m Al Mo?

party?
Ignore parta- party is better but I'm not totally convinced
27 Eyes
20 party ....trap reversed + y
Trap (gin) + (wh)y
I could see the TRAP (gin) upset bit but wasn't sure how the Y was arrived at
(Wh)y trap
Question Author
Thank you all very much for your help.
Thanks scorpiojo. I still don't really see why we use the Y from whY. I know answers are sometimes hidden in the clue but in this case it's running backwards after gin is replaced by trap.
'why' sounds like the letter Y
Thanks bibblebub. Yes I considered that when I suggested PARTY but there is no 'sounds like' indicator
Sorry if I'm making hard work of this. I've never been a regular cryptic crossword solver and I'm always trying to improve
