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.

Everybody is very welcome to have a go - please post your clues by 6 pm (UK time) on Wednesday 12th February. The decision will be made as soon as possible after that.

The setter usually awards an online prize.
