Share memory about old pots here (8)
I believe the answer is:
poolroom
'pots here' is the definition.
(a pot is a shot in the game pool)
'share memory about old' is the wordplay.
'share' becomes 'pool' ('to pool' can mean 'to share').
'memory' becomes 'rom' (ROM is an example**).
'about' is an insertion indicator.
'old' becomes 'o' (common abbreviation eg in OE for Old English).
'rom' going around 'o' is 'room'.
'pool'+'room'='POOLROOM'
I've seen this clue in The Guardian.
