Pelt despicable group (6)
I believe the answer is:
shower
This might be a double definition.
'pelt' is the first definition.
(I've seen this before)
'despicable group' is the second definition.
The answer and definition can be both groups as well as being singular nouns.
Perhaps there's an association between them I don't understand?
Can you help me to learn more?
(Other definitions for shower that I've seen before include "Downpour, in April say" , "Brief spell of precipitation" , "Person demonstrating" , "A brief fall of rain or a cleansing spray" , "Plumbing fixture and brief period of precipitation" .)
