Difficult job producing good skin - it's a daily routine? (5)
I believe the answer is:
grind
'routine?' is the definition.
(I've seen this in another clue)
'difficult job producing good skin it's a daily' is the wordplay.
I cannot quite understand how this works, but
'good' could be 'g' (abbreviation) and 'g' is found in the answer.
'skin' could be 'rind' (synonyms) and 'rind' is located in the answer.
This accounts for all the letters.
This may be the basis of the clue (or it may be nonsense).
Can you help me to learn more?
(Other definitions for grind that I've seen before include "Suggestive dance -- reduce to fine particles" , "Monotonous, routine work" , "To prepare coffee beans" , "work for teeth?" , "Crush to powder" .)
