Co-ordinates in order to get baubles and tinsel? (11)
I believe the answer is:
decorations
'baubles and tinsel?' is the definition.
(baubles and tinsel are Christmas decorations)
'co-ordinates in order to get' is the wordplay.
'in order' is an anagram indicator (the letters in a new order).
'to get' is an insertion indicator.
'ordinates' anagrammed gives 'derations'.
'co' going inside 'derations' is 'DECORATIONS'.
(Another definition for decorations that I've seen is " Commemorative awards".)
I've seen this clue in The Guardian.
Want a hint initially instead of a full solution?
