Refuse to consider some fun, having nowhere to play tennis? (5,3,2,5)
I believe the answer is:
laugh out of court
'refuse to consider' is the definition.
I don't know anything about this answer so I cannot tell whether this works.
'fun having nowhere to play tennis?' is the wordplay.
I cannot quite see how this works, but
'fun' could be 'laugh' (I have seen 'Good fun' mean 'laugh' so perhaps 'fun' could also mean 'laugh') and 'laugh' is located in the answer.
'tennis?' could be 'court' (court tennis is a kind of tennis) and 'court' is found within the answer.
The remaining letters 'outof' is a valid word which might be clued in a way I don't see.
This explanation may well be incorrect...
'some' is the link.
Can you help me to learn more?
(Other definitions for laugh out of court that I've seen before include "ridicule" , "amusement where Queen won't hear it?" , "Refuse to allow" , "dismiss suit peremptorily" , "Disdain" .)
