Distant workplace discussed by drunkard? (6)
I believe the answer is:
offish
'distant' is the definition.
(synonyms)
'workplace discussed by drunkard?' is the wordplay.
I cannot really see how this works, but
'by' could be 'of' and 'of' is present in the answer.
The remaining letters 'fish' is a valid word which might be clued in a way I don't see.
This explanation may well be incorrect...
Can you help me to learn more?
(Another definition for offish that I've seen is " Aloof, distant in manner".)
I've seen this clue in The Guardian.
Want a hint initially instead of a full solution?
