Playground sure to have covers removed and reappear (5)
I believe the answer is:
recur
'reappear' is the definition.
(thesaurus)
'playground sure to have covers removed' is the wordplay.
I cannot really see how this works, but
'playground' could be 'rec' (short for recreation ground) and 'rec' is located in the answer.
The remaining letters 'ur' is a valid word which might be clued in a way I don't understand.
This explanation may well be incorrect...
'and' acts as a link.
Can you help me to learn more?
(Other definitions for recur that I've seen before include "come back to one's mind" , "Happen again or repetitively" , "Be repeated" , "Return to mind" , "Repeat" .)
