Question Author
Thanks guys !

Jack....I thought of JIMMIE but can't really parse it....what is the reference to Bovary all about ?

Madam Bovary ?
...J (judge) I (one) Mme (madame) around I (one)
Perhaps Jimmie (man) = J(udge) + I (one) + Mme (short for Madame, a in Bovary) embracing I (one)
Question Author
Thanks Jack....looks OK, although I like to see a word defined within a clue !

( Araucaria would never have allowed this in to any of his puzzles ! )
The definition is Man (man's name).
Question Author
Thanks Jack....I can see that now.
Boy would have worked just as well.
