Thanks. Can you explain why it's majority please?
18 is the age of majority
Question Author
Thank you. Makes sense now!
replace the P [=piano] in the word PITY with MAJOR [=officer]

and '18' in this clue is the actual number 18, the full legal age

Can you help with another ? 22 across. Favourite vehicle's first three months (6) C-R-E- ? Think it's carpet, but not sure why ?? Thanks
according to Chambers, carpet is a slang term for a prison sentence of 3 months
And in racing slang 'double carpet' is odds of 33-1
