Opening of Lancashire furniture chain's trending immediately (4,1,4)
I believe the answer is:
like a shot
'immediately' is the definition.
(I know that immediately can be written as like a shot)
'opening of lancashire furniture chain's trending' is the wordplay.
'opening of' says to take the initial letters.
'furniture chain's' becomes 'ikeas' (I am not sure about this - if you are sure you should give a lot more credence to this answer).
'trending' becomes 'hot' (I've seen this in another clue).
The first letter of 'lancashire' is 'l'.
'l'+'ikeas'+'hot'='LIKE A SHOT'
Can you help me to learn more?
(Other definitions for like a shot that I've seen before include "What serious drinkers do" , "looking round, in field event?" , "What spirit drinkers do" , "Outright" , "Enjoy a nip" .)
