CLUELESS 259

Welcome to Clueless, our informal weekly clue setting competition.

The idea is to compose a cryptic clue to a given word or answer.

The winner of the previous week's competition both sets the word to be clued and judges the entries for the current week.

The decision is final and 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.

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

Feel free to give a brief explanation if you think it might help.

This week's answer to be clued is:

Spring chicken (6,7)

Clues should be submitted by 6:00 pm (UK time) on Wednesday 23rd March and the winner will be announced shortly after.
