Harry tethering spanner, perhaps? (9)
I believe the answer is:
tightener
'spanner perhaps?' is the definition.
I can't judge whether this defines the answer.
'harry tethering' is the wordplay.
'harry' indicates an anagram (harry can mean to attack or spoil).
'tethering' with letters rearranged gives 'TIGHTENER'.
Can you help me to learn more?
Want a hint initially instead of a full solution?
