Smouse - you could be right.

I wasnt saying mine was more right than yours just offering another suggestion but glad you like it - you get an answer in your head and thats it isnt it

Thank you sir.prize, smouse and dxhound2003 for your help.
Regarding the one answer (82 above) that continues to elude me, is "bird" slang for a prison sentence, although the quizmaster's introduction to this quiz says that every clue leads to the name of a type of bird. ?
82. blackcap. It used to be put on by the judge before announcing a death sentence.
