Today's Alphapuzzle clue.

Op went well & I was home by about 2:30. In part, the medics didn't want to keep me in with lots of Covid patients around.

made
mad = loco
e = east bearing
glad all went well x
Hope your okay satprof.
Sorry dont get it mallyh/satprof- a can see where mad + e comes from but where does MADE itself actualy fit in mallyh please-
in synonyms bearing = made
Thanx mally. Thought bearing was just the E. Maybe am out of my depth but a felt the clue should of started with a word like PRODUCED/CREATED a bearing following loco. Will pop back later after work to see what a can learn
must agree with you that the clue is a bit weak ,it may not be-made -but it fits x
Methinks it could be CARRIAGE .
E = East = bearing
there isn't a definition in the clue
Should have added that loco is short for locomotive by way of explanation .
No definition is typical of Alphapuzzles.
Agree with dummyfluter
Carriage = bearing
Railway carriage follows a loco
Carriage may be confirmed whan Mouseymick adds his post.
Question Author
Well none, Dummyfluter. Carriage is indeed correct. It's easy to find where to put it as C is a given letter and the shape of the word gives it away. IMHO, 'bearing' is a perfectly good definition word. I felt all along that 'made' was problematic as it's a past participle whilst 'bearing' is a present participle/noun.

Oops, Well done, not well none.
As the son of a Station Master , I spent my childhood surrounded by locos !!
Good to hear you are feeling better , Satprof .
Carriage .. 2,26,15,15,16,26,14,10 and Q is 13. Although Donovan was mad about the 3rd “19 across”.
