true confessions

I was GOING to write a post about brick lane, but the Guardian cryptic crossword is killing me.  Killing me dead.  Like no crossword has ever killed me before.  I might well follow in the steps of one of my heroes, the great Frank Lewis, who grew so obsessed with these dang things he started writing them for Americans (and retired to the Caribbean, must be a pretty good deal!)   But I could sometimes solve Mr. Lewis' puzzle, and the Guardian's are leaving me completely bewildered.

So if you'l excuse me, I'm goig to try to figure out how on earth to decode "Title: 'Took offence ... just" (5-6)

gah!
