It's Clueless time again - our informal clue setting competition.

The idea is to compose a cryptic clue for the word given below.

The winner sets the word to be clued and judges the entries next week.

Please do not make any comments until after the winner has been declared.

Multiple entries may be submitted and you may explain your clue if you wish.

Please post your clues by 6 pm (UK time) on Wednesday 2nd April. The decision will be made as soon as possible after that, but may be quite a bit later.

The setter usually awards an online prize.
