    I'm new to all this, but I have no clue how to do a puzzle like this. It didn't make any sense to me! Sorry.

      Cryptics are daunting but the thrill of unlocking their secrets is addictive! If you're curious, I recommend this guardian article which gives you the basic breakdown of cryptic clues work: https://www.theguardian.com/lifeandstyle/2010/may/03/how-to-solve-cryptic-crossword
