Good morning,

Hope these help you.

No.3. Cut hospital fuel first = GASH

Fuel = gas, hospital =h, cut = gash.

No.4. JAMBALAYA
Preserve = Jam, Welsh lake = Bala, Spicy dish =Jambalaya

Alehouse anagram of Leah + Ouse

Vocation - from Evocation (both can mean calling)but starting with the V is my guess at the wordplay.

Hi Claire,

How about VISITING

Visiting = calling
First letter V = putting Violet first.

Would that fit or am I way off beam?
