Sleepy-looking father of three girls cleared out baby clothes (6)
I believe the answer is:
bleary
'sleepy-looking father' is the definition.
I can't judge whether this definition defines the answer.
'three girls cleared out baby clothes' is the wordplay.
'three girls' becomes 'lear' (I can't explain this - if you can you should give a lot more credence to this answer).
'cleared out' says to hollow out the word (remove centre letters).
'clothes' means one lot of letters goes inside another (inserted letters are clothed in others).
'baby' with its middle removed is 'by'.
'lear' put into 'by' is 'BLEARY'.
'of' acts as a link.
Can you help me to learn more?
(Other definitions for bleary that I've seen before include "with tired eyes" , "Smudged, indistinct" , "Misty" , "Tired and unfocused" , "Like the unfocused vision" .)
