Silly wind-up does upset (6,4)

Ross

I believe the answer is:

upside down

'upset' is the definition.
(thesaurus)

'silly wind-up does' is the wordplay.
'silly' indicates anagramming the letters.
'wind'+'up'+'does'='windupdoes'
'windupdoes' is an anagram of 'UPSIDE-DOWN'.

(Other definitions for upside down that I've seen before include "kind of cake" , "at sixes and sevens" , "The wrong way up" , "in a crazy way" , "in disarray" .)

I've seen this clue in The Times.
