Hot sauce ordeal in mess on island: Tees hardly sated? (1,5,3,1,5)
I believe the answer is:
i could eat a horse
'tees hardly sated?' is the definition.
I know nothing about this answer so I cannot judge whether this works.
'hot sauce ordeal in mess on island' is the wordplay.
'in mess' is an anagram indicator.
'on' says to put letters next to each other.
'island' becomes 'i' (geographical abbreviation).
'hot'+'sauce'+'ordeal'='hotsauceordeal'
'hotsauceordeal' with letters rearranged gives 'couldeatahorse'.
'couldeatahorse' after 'i' is 'I COULD EAT A HORSE'.
Can you help me to learn more?
I've seen this clue in The Independent.
