Leisure Pleasure N0.79

[BertieW]

I must be very dim - last one and can't get a handle on this - small extra hint please anyone.

[Goofy]

this has been 'clued' before. anyway think of a b all game where you sometimes have to 'aim off' to get whre you want the ball to go. then lok this word up in chambers - and blimey it's a raw cadet!

[Fibonacci]

There have been several clues to this given already try using the search facility

[Magic 1]

Also stuck on this one. Could it be Aintree anagram of trainee. This could be called an indirect approach !!?

BertieW I have found the clue that refers to the raw cadet so forget my last effort , although I think that mine is a better answer.! Use a handle (cue) on this and you should soon find the answer that you are looking for

[prospector]

Clue 79 An indirect approach is necessary for the raw cadet. (7)

An indirect approach .... so, in this game you have got into a position whereby you cannot aim at the target ball directly, maybe you have to swerve or come off a cushion.

Having got the word for this game .... look the word up at http://www.answers.com/ scroll down to the section on History and read ..... this will tell you about a belief concerning the origins of the game in India in 1875, and will answer the -raw cadet- part of the question for you.
