Landlord shot me in error (4,4)

Ross

I believe the answer is:

mine host

'landlord' is the definition.
(I've seen this before)

'shot me in error' is the wordplay.
'error' is an anagram indicator.
'shot'+'me'+'in'='shotmein'
'shotmein' anagrammed gives 'MINE HOST'.

(Another definition for mine host that I've seen is " Landlord".)

I've seen this clue in The Irish Times.
