Titbit ? . . . . if 'c' is wrong
Question Author
Thanks, John Alex, for your help; the 'c' is correct but your answer put me on a new train of thought to the right answer - picnic
Thanks for your reply possetpie, however, not sure that 'picnic' stacks up (wheras tit + bit would fit the clue). What was the 'c' clue/answer? ja
Question Author
No doubt about the 'c' John Alex. The clue that gives it is "Instead, changed first, to 'aversion'" - answer, DISTANCE (anag of instead with first letter of changed)
Morning possetpie. Sorry, can't allow 'Distance' for 'Aversion' although I can see your logic!

Try DISTASTE . . . . in 'STEAD' changed + '1st' (IST)

Regardz, ja
I put titbit and distaste which I agree did not fit anagram

I would say 'titbit' is definitely correct. Your clue might work like this: "In 'stead' changed plus 'ist' (= 'first'), ie anag. of 'steadist', which could give 'distaste', which = 'aversion'. How would that do? Good luck!
