Welcome to our weekly competition to compose a cryptic clue, to be judged by your fellow contestants.

You may enter as many clues as you like and everyone is welcome.

It's up to you whether or not you explain how the clue works.

Entrants should vote for their favourite clue. Please include the post number but please refrain from commenting on entries until voting has begun.

Clues should be posted by 2:00 pm local UK time on Friday 9th June, when voting opens. Voting closes at 10:00 pm that evening.

The entry with the most votes wins and its composer sets the next challenge.

The setter has the deciding vote in the event of a tie and may change the rules if necessary.

The setter will declare the winner and award an online prize.

This week the challenge is to provide a cryptic clue for:

TEFLON (6)

Have fun and good luck!
