At the driving place, all alcohol free (8)
I believe the answer is:
teetotal
'alcohol free' is the definition.
Both the definition and answer are adjectives. Perhaps they are linked in a way I don't understand?
'at the driving place all' is the wordplay.
'at' means one lot of letters go next to another.
'the driving place' becomes 'tee' (a golfer drives a ball from a tee).
'all' becomes 'total' (I can't justify this - if you can you should believe this answer much more).
'tee'+'total' is 'TEETOTAL'.
Can you help me to learn more?
(Other definitions for teetotal that I've seen before include "Abjuring alcohol" , "Sober" , "On the wagon" , "Abstaining completely from alcohol" , "not taking a drop" .)
