Hide fruit beforehand though that could be a bit slippery (6,4)
I believe the answer is:
banana skin
'that could be a bit slippery' is the definition.
I don't know anything about this answer so I cannot tell whether this works.
'hide fruit beforehand' is the wordplay.
'hide' becomes 'skin' (a hide is an animal skin).
'fruit' becomes 'banana' (type of fruit).
'beforehand' means one lot of letters go next to another.
'skin' after 'banana' is 'BANANA SKIN'.
'though' is the link.
Can you help me to learn more?
(Other definitions for banana skin that I've seen before include "Something causing downfall (colloq.)" , "Potential source of slip-up" , "A disaster waiting to happen" , "Potential downfall" , "pedestrian problem" .)
