Trying to bore emos by sending them west (8)
I believe the answer is:
tiresome
'trying' is the definition.
(I've seen this before)
'bore emos by sending them west' is the wordplay.
I cannot really understand how this works, but
'bore' could be 'tire' (I've seen this in another clue) and 'tire' is located in the answer.
an anagram of 'emos' is 'some' which is located in the answer.
This accounts for all the letters.
This may be the basis of the clue (or it may be nonsense).
'to' is the link.
Can you help me to learn more?
(Other definitions for tiresome that I've seen before include "Meteors I find annoying" , "irritating" , "Is remote, being boring" , "Exasperating" , "Causing impatience" .)
