    Please alter the subject line to read SOLUTION! And Well Done, but you must supply the explanation for the others to follow!

      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! :)

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

                  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

                                          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

                                          I don't recall such a rule - however, I do remember Dave asking each day this week whether anyone had solved the anagram yet. Aside from that, you've only guessed at the anagram and you haven't provided any reasoning. Nil points.

                                          It definitely isn't definatley
