Does Dahl work make a pile? (8)
I believe the answer is:
shedload
'a pile?' is the definition.
I know nothing about this answer so I can't judge whether this works.
'does dahl work' is the wordplay.
'work' indicates an anagram.
'does'+'dahl'='doesdahl'
'doesdahl' anagrammed gives 'SHEDLOAD'.
'make' is the link.
Can you help me to learn more?
(Other definitions for shedload that I've seen before include "A large number" , "big amount" , "a lot of it" , "great amount" , "Myriad" .)
