CORNET (anagram of inner letters concerto)

2 Drifter

3 Messes (Menses are Scottish ornaments).

Question Author

Thank you Canary42 and NACW...how does drifter parse please?

SD, my notes are rather a mess now. I think it might have been    'write', compose letter,  with f, for female and those are inside, aboard Dr.

Write (compose letter), W surplus = rite

around F(emale) and DR

= drifter (fishing boat)

Thanks, JJ, I got to the point where I didn't need to track down the extra letters, I could fill the words from what I had!

Question Author
