In the country, business with noisy members (5)
I believe the answer is:
farms
'in the country business' is the definition.
I can't tell whether this defines the answer.
'with noisy members' is the wordplay.
'with' says to put letters next to each other.
'noisy' becomes 'f'.
'members' becomes 'arms' (arm is a kind of member).
'f' put next to 'arms' is 'FARMS'.
Can you help me to learn more?
(Another definition for farms that I've seen is " Works the land".)
I've seen this clue in the Evening Standard.
Want a hint initially instead of a full solution?
