Managed small repair after using last bit of Pritt Stick (8)
I believe the answer is:
transfix
'stick' is the definition.
(thesaurus)
'managed small repair after using last bit of pritt' is the wordplay.
I cannot quite see how this works, but
'managed' could be 'ran' (both can mean organised or was in charge of) and 'ran' is located in the answer.
'small' could be 's' (abbreviation - e.g. clothes size) and 's' is located in the answer.
'repair' could be 'fix' (synonyms) and 'fix' is found in the answer.
'last' could be 't' (I've seen this in other clues) and 't' is found in the answer.
This accounts for all the letters.
This explanation may well be incorrect...
Can you help me to learn more?
(Other definitions for transfix that I've seen before include "Make still with horror or astonishment" , "Pierce with a sharp point" , "Pierce or impale as with spear" , "Stun in horror - run through" , "Pierce; make motionless" .)
