Run barmaid round a giant perch (10)
I believe the answer is:
barramundi
'a giant perch' is the definition.
The definition suggests a singular noun which matches the answer.
'run barmaid round' is the wordplay.
'round' indicates anagramming the letters.
'run'+'barmaid'='runbarmaid'
'runbarmaid' is an anagram of 'BARRAMUNDI'.
Can you help me to learn more?
(Another definition for barramundi that I've seen is " Australian fish".)
I've seen this clue in the Sydney Morning Herald.
Want a hint initially instead of a full solution?
