Welcome to CLUELESS, our informal weekly clue-setting competition.

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

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

The judge’s decision is final. 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.

To be fair to others, please do not make any comments on entries until after the winner has been declared.

Multiple entries may be submitted, and new competitors are particularly welcome!

Feel free to add an explanation if you feel it will help.

Please submit your clues by 2pm BST Wednesday 23rd July.
