Weekend Peer Review 23

Welcome to our weekend competition to compose a cryptic clue, to be judged by your fellow contestants.

You may enter as many clues as you like and everyone is welcome. Feel free to explain your clue, if you think it will help, or to ask another setter to parse a clue.

Entrants should vote for their favourite clue, and may indicate a second choice, if they wish. This will be counted in the event of a tie.

Clues should be posted by 12 noon (UK time) on Sunday April 12th. when voting opens.
Voting closes at 9 pm.

The entry with the most votes wins and its composer sets next week's competition.
The setter may change the rules or experiment with an alternative format for the following week.

The setter will declare the winner and award an online prize.
This week's challenge presents a choice

WASTE (5)
WASTED (6)
WASTEFUL (8)

Have fun and enjoy the Easter 'break'.

A note about numbering - the first Weekend PR ended at #20, so I've taken it from there.
