Bump!

Bump

It could be FATNESS. FITNESS, form, with A for adult replacing I for India.

Brilliant. Thanks mattrom. I didn't even image it could be a substitution clue. Well parsed a very difficult one. Thanks.

Bharat, I'm afraid I don't like the clue as much as you do! Is Fatness really a synonym for Fertility?

Hi Malone, it is, according to Chambers.

Oh, thanks for that, Mattrom - and I forgot to say 'Well done' to you earlier (even though I didn't really like the clue, I took it that you were right.)
Bharat, Chambers has proved me wrong - sorry!

Please help me in parsing / solving this cryptic clue -
" Sloppy mess in northern England is welcomed by society subsequently (8)"

Hi Bharat

First 5 words are the definition

A word from the clue inside society (1) and subsequently (5)

Thanks geting for the help in parsing the clue neatly for my understanding. Could get the right word.
