Hit with hose - just a foot long? (4)
I believe the answer is:
sock
This could be a double definition.
'hit' is the first definition.
(I know that sock is a more specific form of hit)
'hose just a foot long?' is the second definition.
I know that 'foot' relates to this answer.
'with' acts as a link.
Can you help me to learn more?
(Other definitions for sock that I've seen before include "Item of footwear" , "Foot covering" , "Hit with a powerful blow" , "impact" , "One going into Oxford maybe" .)
