Helpful Hints
- This clue's indicators are 'returning' and 'by'. 'returning' is a reversal indicator - we'll need to find some neighbouring fodder and return it / turn it around. 'by' is barely an indicator, but worth explaining: it simply flags that some preceding fodder is by, or next to, some subsequent fodder, all while improving the surface of the clue.
- This clue's fodder is 'if' and 'sub'. We'll need to use the letters of one of these along with a substitute for the other to construct our answer, as guided by the clue's indicator(s).
- Our definition here is 'Log location', and our answer will be a word for that.
