Drug supplier with speed accepts abuse (8)
I believe the answer is:
pharmacy
'drug supplier' is the definition.
The definition and answer can be both man-made objects as well as being singular nouns.
Maybe you can see a link between them that I can't see?
'speed accepts abuse' is the wordplay.
'speed' becomes 'pacy' (I am not sure about this - if you are sure you should believe this answer much more).
'accepts' means one lot of letters goes inside another.
'abuse' becomes 'harm' (I've seen this in another clue).
'pacy' going around 'harm' is 'PHARMACY'.
'with' is the link.
Can you help me to learn more?
(Other definitions for pharmacy that I've seen before include "Dispensary" , "drug dealer" , "get medicine here?" , "where a remedy is sought" , "Where drugs are dispensed" .)
