Came across Park and Ride initially looking for the pitch (6)
I believe the answer is:
camper
'looking for the pitch' is the definition.
I can't judge whether this definition defines the answer.
'came across park and ride initially' is the wordplay.
'across' means one lot of letters goes inside another.
'park' becomes 'P' (abbreviation as on an automatic car's gear lever).
'and' is a charade indicator (letters next to each other).
'initially' says to take the initial letters.
The initial letter of 'ride' is 'r'.
'came' going around 'p' is 'campe'.
'campe'+'r'='CAMPER'
Can you help me to learn more?
(Other definitions for camper that I've seen before include "Touring vehicle" , "One with temporary home" , "more affected?" , "Van in which to live on the road" , "Vehicle for living in" .)
