Clue Chain 3

[Hazlinny]

Miser has kindly asked me to start Chain 3 so here goes ...

The idea of the game is that the setter poses an original home-made clue which everybody is invited to solve.  The poster who solves the clue first (hopefully identified by the setter) is then invited to post their own original clue, easy or cryptic.

My clue:  Lightly touch a seabird would indicate a design. (7)

Or possibly request some one else to post a clue miser.

Once upon a time a thread like this one ran for one day. And then a new one was started the next day.

But here on AB it seems to, unlike the other crossword site, run for much longer.

Ozzy/  I think, if there is quite a time lapse, anyone who looks in should just post a clue??  See what Miser suggests.
