Nineteen bob perhaps a bit dopey (3,3,4,4)
I believe the answer is:
not the full quid
'nineteen bob' is the definition.
I don't know anything about this answer so I can't tell whether it can be defined by this definition.
'a bit dopey' is the wordplay.
I cannot really understand how this works, but
'bit' could be 'quid' (quid is a kind of bit) and 'quid' is found in the answer.
This explanation may well be incorrect...
'perhaps' acts as a link.
Can you help me to learn more?
I've seen this clue in the Sydney Morning Herald.
Want a hint initially instead of a full solution?
