CLUELESS 41


It’s Clueless time again, which this week falls to me to set.

The idea is simply to compile a cryptic clue to a given answer. The winner of the previous week’s competition sets the answer to be clued and judges the entries. There is a one-day time-frame. The judge’s decision is final (reasons may or may not be given at the judge’s discretion).

It is customary for the judge to donate a virtual prize to the winner.

To be fair to others, please do not make any comments on entries until after the winning entry has been declared.

Multiple entries may be submitted and new competitors are particularly welcome.


In keeping with the time of year

the cluless answer is: RESOLUTION

Clues to be submitted before 16:30 GMT tomorrow (Wed 4th January), but PLEASE NOTE that as I'll be attending a funeral tomorrow afternoon (nothing too traumatic -- an elderly relative who was ill for some time) and it's a long round trip, you'll have to hold your collective breath for an hour or two longer than usual.

Good luck!
