Away from France (3)

Ross

I believe the answer is:

off

'away' is the definition.
('off' can be a synonym of 'away')

'from france' is the wordplay.
'from' becomes 'of' (I've seen this in other clues).
'france' becomes 'f'.
'of'+'f'='OFF'

(Other definitions for off that I've seen before include "Spoiled; unavailable" , "On holiday" , "Fielding side" , "High; cancelled" , "Complete (6,3) - See 14" .)

I've seen this clue in The Independent.
