Go round something sticky (3)

Ross

I believe the answer is:

goo

'something sticky' is the definition.

'go round' is the wordplay.
'round' becomes 'o' (o is a circular letter).
'go'+'o'='GOO'

(Other definitions for goo that I've seen before include "Sticky substance (sl.)" , "Substance that's viscous" , "syrup" , "Sticky wet material or sickly sentiment" , "Anything sticky" .)

I've seen this clue in The Times.
