CCC - The 5th of the Connections [modified]

[Dalek Dave]

OK, you have four of the words, four of the letters. Here is the Fifth Clue, so the Anagram should be quite swift in coming, but lets see how quickly the connection comes. "Affected effeminacy? A refusal to note down unknown pealing!" (11) OK, go for it boys and girls! :)

Did you mean effiminacy (a word I don't know) or effeminacy (meaning "in the manner of a female") ?

[Dalek Dave]

I will edit this! I do know how to spell EFFEMINACY, I just chose to spell it like that owing to pressures of stupidity!

campanology: Affected effeminacy = camp A = a refusal = no to note down = log unknown = y campanology = "The subject or science of bells or bell-ringing" = pealing

So, leppie[^] got the anagram yesterday itself.

*jaans

[Graham Bradshaw]

Am I going mad, or did you also change Peeler to pealing?

[Dalek Dave]

Thank you. It is just to ensure that it was the wet thing between your ears that got it and not a google search or wordfinder! Anyway, well done to you.

I changed Peeler to Pealing within 10 seconds of posting, as soon as I saw it! You must have quick off the mark!

The rules say that no one can give the solution before the complition of all the anagram so it started today after the CCC was solved and I'm the first one who gave the solution
