Helpful Hints
- This clue's indicators are 'returning' and 'wandering'. One of these is a reversal indicator - we'll take some nearby fodder (words in the clue or their substitute) and turn them/it around. The other is an anagram indicator suggesting some movement among neighbouring letters.
- This clue's fodder is 'Hermit perhaps' and 'alone'. We'll use the letters of one along with a substitute for the other to construct our answer, as guided by the clue's indicator(s). Note: 'perhaps' is a word that prompts us to think of a higher level category to which 'hermit' might belong as an example.
- Our definition here is 'city', and our answer will be a well-known city.
