One driving around convent leaving base (5)
I believe the answer is:
cabby
'one driving' is the definition.
(a cab driver drives around)
I don't understand how the rest of the clue works.
Can you help me to learn more?
(Other definitions for cabby that I've seen before include "Taxi driver" , "Taxi-driver" .)
I've seen this clue in The Independent.
Want a hint initially instead of a full solution?
