Comes out of bathroom with dirty instrument (4,4)
I believe the answer is:
soil pipe
'comes out of bathroom' is the definition.
I can't judge whether this definition defines the answer.
'dirty instrument' is the wordplay.
'dirty' becomes 'soil' (synonyms).
'instrument' becomes 'pipe' (pipe is a kind of instrument).
'soil'+'pipe'='SOIL-PIPE'
'with' acts as a link.
Can you help me to learn more?
I've seen this clue in The Irish Times.
Want a hint initially instead of a full solution?
