Welcome to Clueless, our informal weekly clue-setting competition.
The idea is to compose a cryptic clue to a given word.
The winner of the previous week’s competition both sets the word to be clued and judges the entries for the current 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!
The answer to be clued is: CONTRADICTION (13)
I am posting the clue early due to work times and an issue with outlook.com not sending emails. (Ps, Thank you Les40 for the offer of posting for me).
Clues to be submitted by (18:30 Hrs Wednesday 8th May). This will allow time to peruse and parse.
(I will announce the winner as soon as possible due to my work finishing time)
Hope you all had a great Bank holiday weekend and I look forward to reading your replies.
Good luck!
