Around Snowdonia, eccentric vet makes little ripples (8)
I believe the answer is:
wavelets
'ripples' is the definition.
('wavelet' can be a synonym of 'ripple')
'around snowdonia eccentric vet makes little' is the wordplay.
I cannot quite see how this works, but
'makes' could be 'lets' (letting is a kind of making) and 'lets' is present in the answer.
The remaining letters 'wave' is a valid word which might be clued in a way I don't see.
This may be the basis of the clue (or it may be nonsense).
Can you help me to learn more?
I've seen this clue in The Irish Times.
Want a hint initially instead of a full solution?
