Looked around for things to pop smartly into the shed (7)
I believe the answer is:
shopped
'looked around for things' is the definition.
Although both the answer and definition are past participle verbs, I cannot see how one could define the other.
'pop smartly into the shed' is the wordplay.
I cannot quite see how this works, but
an anagram of 'pop' is 'opp' which is located in the answer.
'the shed' could be 'shed' and 'shed' is present in the leftover letters.
No letters remain.
This explanation may well be incorrect...
'to' acts as a link.
Can you help me to learn more?
(Other definitions for shopped that I've seen before include "Bought goods or slangily informed on" , "Bought goods or gave away information about someone" .)
