Helpful Hints
- This clue's indicators are 'spent' and 'bringing back'. One is a deletion indicator, suggesting that some fodder is exhausted from other fodder. The other is a reversal indicator - we'll need to turn some neighbouring fodder around.
- This clue's fodder is 'Grandpa', '$1000', and 'hair'. We'll need to find a substitute for one of these and use it with the letters of the others to construct our answer, as guided by the clue's indicator(s).
- Our definition here is 'Maybe he's lonely?', and our answer will be someone on the outside - someone who might be lonely.
