Are grand organised thus (8)
I believe the answer is:
arranged
'are grand organised thus' is the definition.
I can't tell whether this defines the answer.
'are grand organised' is the wordplay.
'organised' is an anagram indicator.
'are'+'grand'='aregrand'
'aregrand' is an anagram of 'ARRANGED'.
Can you help me to learn more?
(Other definitions for arranged that I've seen before include "Placed attractively as with flowers" , "Settled plans for something" , "Ordered" , "Put in order or adapted a piece of music" , "Organised, planned" .)
