Clue Chain 3

[Hazlinny]

Miser has kindly asked me to start Chain 3 so here goes ...

The idea of the game is that the setter poses an original home-made clue which everybody is invited to solve.  The poster who solves the clue first (hopefully identified by the setter) is then invited to post their own original clue, easy or cryptic.

My clue:  Lightly touch a seabird would indicate a design. (7)

This one is driving me mad, Canary! 

 

[Canary42]

You don't like "soon" then 😀😁😀😁😀😁😀😁😀😁😀😁😀😁

[Patsy33]

Yes, it's good reasoning, Canary. I was thinking moon..😆

[Canary42]

A tricky one for sure - I suppose ozzy's in the Land of Nod at the moment :-)

[Patsy33]

Yes, he will be.

 

I was thinking monsoon, taking son out, (he), left with moon?? I wonder if Now, is definition, or Jamaica.?

I like yours, though..😃

[elliemay1]

I would go with 'soon' though it's not a true synonym of 'now', also why 'mon' for 'he'?

[Canary42]

Yes, it's flaky, but the best I could do. 

[Patsy33]

'Mon' is address of 'man' in Jamaica..

 

[elliemay1]

Thank you so much Patsy, that clinches it for me now!

[elliemay1]

Patsy/Canary, why don't one of you post a clue until Ozzy returns?

[Patsy33]

You're welcome, Ellie. Made sense in the end!

Sorry, I keep dipping in and out. On weeks holiday with family. Will post a clue very soon.😀
