CLUELESS II (weekend) No 1

Welcome to Clueless II, our informal weekend clue setting competition.

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

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.

Explanations are welcome for complex or obscure clues.

Clues should be submitted by 7:00 pm (UK time) on Monday 23rd March.

The word to be clued is ...

DISTANCE (8)

Have fun !

Cold shoulder from woman with attitude (8)

Princess's position maybe socially acceptable(8)

Stretch Enid's cat wickedly (8)

Compass position at the end of day one (8)

I would back the policy on space (8)

Awkward tin-cased isolation (8)

Cats dine out with detachment (8)

Extent of risk about Laurel (8)

Cutting round brownish area (8)

(cutting as in food preparation!)
