Something to clean up after geese made a mess around Quebec (8)
I believe the answer is:
squeegee
'something to clean up' is the definition.
I can't judge whether this definition defines the answer.
'geese made a mess around quebec' is the wordplay.
I cannot quite understand how this works, but
'quebec' could be 'que' (abbreviation for Quebec) and 'que' is found in the answer.
an anagram of 'geese' is 'segee' which is present in the remaining letters.
This accounts for all the letters.
This may be the basis of the clue (or it may be nonsense).
'after' is the link.
Can you help me to learn more?
(Other definitions for squeegee that I've seen before include "Rubber-edged gizmo for cleaning windows" , "Window wiper" , "Instrument for removing water and dirt from windows and floors" , "Rubber-edged tool for cleaning windows" , "Window cleaner's rubber-edged tool" .)
