Steady hands split bananas in fridge (10)
I believe the answer is:
girlfriend
'steady' is the definition.
The answer and definition can be both people as well as being singular nouns.
Maybe you can see an association between them that I can't see?
'hands split bananas in fridge' is the wordplay.
I cannot really see how this works, but
'hands' could be 'rl' (abbreviations for left and right) and 'rl' is located in 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 girlfriend that I've seen before include "Sweetheart" , "Female companion" , "Female squeeze" , "date" .)
