People must be crazy to live in such cushioned surroundings (6,5)
I believe the answer is:
padded cells
'people must be crazy to live in' is the definition.
I know nothing about this answer so I can't tell whether it can be defined by this definition.
'cushioned surroundings' is the wordplay.
'cushioned' becomes 'padded' (synonyms).
'surroundings' becomes 'cells' (I can't explain this - if you can you should believe this answer much more).
'padded'+'cells'='PADDED CELLS'
'such' acts as a link.
Can you help me to learn more?
I've seen this clue in The Irish News.
