Sound of sheep right round a Zulu market (6)

Ross

I believe the answer is:

bazaar

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

'sound of sheep right round a zulu' is the wordplay.
'sound of sheep' becomes 'baa' (I've seen this before).
'right' becomes 'r' (common abbreviation).
'round' is an insertion indicator.
'zulu' becomes 'z' (phonetic alphabet: alpha, bravo, charlie etc.).
'baa'+'r'='baar'
'a'+'z'='az'
'baar' placed around 'az' is 'BAZAAR'.

(Other definitions for bazaar that I've seen before include "Fair" , "Fete" , "Eastern marketplace" , "An open oriental-type market" , "Charity sale of many different things" .)

I've seen this clue in The Times.
