Laze idly with Indian lute found abandoned by female (3,6)
I believe the answer is:
sit around
'laze idly' is the definition.
'sit around' can be an answer for 'laze' (thesaurus). I'm unsure of the 'idly' bit.
'indian lute found abandoned by female' is the wordplay.
'indian lute' becomes 'sitar' (I've seen this before).
'abandoned by' is a deletion indicator.
'female' becomes 'f' (common abbreviation).
'found' with 'f' taken out is 'ound'.
'sitar'+'ound'='SIT AROUND'
'with' is the link.
