Pal I recruit to arrange something on a wall (7,4)
I believe the answer is:
picture rail
'something on a wall' is the definition.
I can't tell whether this definition defines the answer.
'pal i recruit to arrange' is the wordplay.
'to arrange' indicates an anagram.
'pal'+'i'+'recruit'='palirecruit'
'palirecruit' is an anagram of 'PICTURE RAIL'.
Can you help me to learn more?
(Another definition for picture rail that I've seen is " Strip of wood for hanging works of art".)
I've seen this clue in The Times.
Want a hint initially instead of a full solution?
