Conundrum about series that was out in the mid-afternoon? (3-8)
I believe the answer is:
tea-strainer
'conundrum about series that was out in the mid-afternoon?' is the definition.
Although both the answer and definition are singular nouns, I don't understand how one could define the other.
This is all the clue.
Can you help me to learn more?
(Other definitions for tea-strainer that I've seen before include "Catcher of leaves" , "What stops leaves getting through" .)
