Get fruit from the tree and a makeshift bed? (9)
I believe the answer is:
shakedown
'makeshift bed?' is the definition.
(shakedown can mean an improvised bed)
'get fruit from the tree and a' is the wordplay.
I cannot quite understand how this works, but
'from' could be 'o' (I've seen this in other clues) and 'o' is found in the answer.
'and' could be 'n' (common abbreviation for 'and') and 'n' is found within the answer.
'a' is within the answer.
This may be the basis of the clue (or it may be nonsense).
Can you help me to learn more?
(Other definitions for shakedown that I've seen before include "extortion" , "Makeshift bed" , "improvised bed" , "Overcharge villainously" .)
