anagram mate +end of year =y
Chum = Mate (anagram)

+ Y Start of Year
Around = anagram
Question Author
Unfortunately 'Chum, around' would indicate an anagram of CHUM rather than MATE so perhaps the setter is guilty of an indirect anagram here ?

The clue should read 'around start of ear' (the Y is an extra letter) so the wordplay is MATY around E
