Misanthropes put alcohol in navigation system (6)
I believe the answer is:
grumps
'misanthropes' is the definition.
The answer and definition can be both people as well as being plural nouns.
Perhaps you can see an association between them that I can't see?
'alcohol in navigation system' is the wordplay.
I cannot quite see how this works, but
'alcohol' could be 'rum' (rum is a kind of alcohol) and 'rum' is found in the answer.
This may be the basis of the clue (or it may be nonsense).
'put' is the link.
Can you help me to learn more?
I've seen this clue in the Sydney Morning Herald.
Want a hint initially instead of a full solution?
