Relative first takes day in Paris, no good staying (10)
I believe the answer is:
sojourning
'no good staying' is the definition.
I can't tell whether this defines the answer.
'relative first takes day in paris' is the wordplay.
'relative' becomes 'son' (son is a type of relative').
'first' becomes 'ing' (I can't explain this - if you can you should believe this answer much more).
'takes' indicates putting letters inside.
'day in paris' becomes 'jour' (I've seen this in another clue).
'son'+'ing'='soning'
'soning' going around 'jour' is 'SOJOURNING'.
