Bloody sparse (4)
I believe the answer is:
rare
I believe this is a double definition.
'bloody' is the first definition.
(I know that bloody can be written as rare)
'sparse' is the second definition.
(thesaurus)
(Other definitions for rare that I've seen before include "Excellent; uncommon" , "Unusual(ly fine)" , "Very scarce and probably valuable" , "Not easily come by like undercooked meat" , "little done?" .)
