Pound of tea and coffee picked up? (6)
I believe the answer is:
bruise
'pound' is the definition.
(thesaurus)
'tea and coffee picked up?' is the wordplay.
I cannot quite understand how this works, but
'up?' could be 'is' (I've seen this in other clues) and 'is' is present in the answer.
This explanation may well be incorrect...
'of' is the link.
Can you help me to learn more?
(Other definitions for bruise that I've seen before include "Impact injury" , "Sign of injury" , "Contusion" , "Injure underlying soft tissue or bone" , "Superficial injury" .)
