I'm so sorry for my brevity. Last week was hideous. Chuck in hormones and I wasn't "me".

Ok so I shall start again with the same clues and then add if what I've written still isn't helping!

What links a bird, a job and a source of energy?

Be honest, if that helps not one jot I'll think of another clue Smile

All I want to do is make your mind up when you're on the underground. Which, by the way, is noisy.
