Hi a short extract from Elinor Glynns "IT" son
She calls it It,

Just simply It.

That is the word,

They’re using now.

For that improper fraction

Of vague attraction,

That gets the action somehow.

You’ve either got,

Or you have not.

That certain thing,

That makes ‘em cling.

So if the boys don’t seem to fall for you,

There’s just no hope at all for you.

Give up and quit,

You’ll never hit,

If you do not got it.

I thought "clear" was the definition, and "not iceable" was the word play.

Hi aristo thanks for that ,

@paul - chris is correct .

Clear the roads after gritting (10)

clear= def. (apparent,obvious,noticeable)
the roads should be NOT ICE-ABLE after gritting!
