Hi catperson44 & welcome to AB!
Perhaps next time, you could begin your thread as -

(Further Question Details)
8d Brassy piece greeting Bonnie's partner out loud after work (10)
You might then show a pattern of '?' & any letters you have placed, such as -
O?H?C?E?D?
(I hope ^ that hasn't spoilt your enjoyment of the puzzle!)
With information like this, it's much easier for us to help you - thanks for next time :-))
