Afraid next in line has gone off with blonde (4-6)
I believe the answer is:
fair-haired
'blonde' is the definition.
(I've seen this before)
'afraid next in line has gone off' is the wordplay.
I cannot quite understand how this works, but
'line' could be 'red' (red line is a kind of line) and 'red' is located in the answer.
This explanation may well be incorrect...
'with' is the link.
Can you help me to learn more?
(Another definition for fair-haired that I've seen is " Blond".)
I've seen this clue in The Irish Times.
Want a hint initially instead of a full solution?
