'later all over the place? toledo oxford and ring' is the definition.
I can't tell whether this defines the answer.

'all over the place? toledo oxford and ring' is the wordplay.
'all over the place?' indicates anagramming the letters.
'oxford' becomes 'o' (this might be a standard abbreviation I've not previously seen).
'and' is a charade indicator (letters next to each other).
'ring' becomes 'o'.
'toledo' is an anagram of 'toodle'.
'toodle'+'o'+'o'='TOODLE-OO'
