tonsil fits

[JMR27]

you are correct a tonsil is not a gland, but it's the Daily Record.....

[atsgran]

Put tonsil as well as it fits with other clues

[Catron]

Why do you say tonsil is not a gland? Chambers dictionary says it is:

tonsil ,
n either of two lymph glands on either side of the root of the tongue in vertebrates

[JMR27]

hi catron it looks like Chambers has slipped up. A lymph gland is the incorrect term for a lymph node. These are not glands, although commonly so described, even by doctors.
