| 1. | 'beneath parasol perhaps' = remove S-u-n before performing the anagram
This is too indirect to be fair to the solver | | 2. | Very unfair on the solver in my opinion – nice idea but too many steps in the wordplay | | 3. | Deletion of SUN requires a second anagrind. | | 4. | Too indirect, why not 'out of sun'? | | 5. | Doesn't that count as an indirect subtraction anagram? We need to be directly told that the letters of SUN are being separately removed. | | 6. | no way does 'beneath parasol' mean without 'SUN' |
