34a:Stones in obstruction that keeps eccentric folk outside. I have N-T-E-S. Logic says nutters but I cannot parse it. Any views please.

Looking at the clue, could it be NUTLETS?

Let = obstruction
Nuts = eccentric folk (outside)
Nutlets = small stones.

Thanks-yes get it now. By the way Chris Barber is 85 tomorrow. What an achievement and no knighthood! Saw him two weeks ago and still going like cerazy!

Cedric, May I echo your sentiment? Happy Birthday and Many Happy Returns to Chris Barber! O my lost youth and the Barber band with the wonderful Monty Sunshine!
Just a thought about the knighthood: we never know these things but perhaps Barber has been offered an honour of some sort and refused it.
