Drill carried (4)
I believe the answer is:
bore
I believe this is a double definition.
'drill' is the first definition.
(synonyms)
'carried' is the second definition.
(I've seen this before)
(Other definitions for bore that I've seen before include "Dull person; use a drill" , "Capable of being shifted" , "I go on" , "Carried - drill" , "Tidal wave; drill" .)
