... or drone, supply having been requested (2,5)
I believe the answer is:
on order
'been requested' is the definition.
I don't know anything about this answer so I cannot tell whether it can be defined by this definition.
'or drone supply' is the wordplay.
'supply' is an anagram indicator (in a supple way).
'or'+'drone'='ordrone'
'ordrone' with letters rearranged gives 'ON ORDER'.
'having' acts as a link.
Can you help me to learn more?
(Another definition for on order that I've seen is " Awaiting delivery".)
I've seen this clue in The Irish Independent.
