Wait around turning close to centre of Brent Cross (8)
I believe the answer is:
tayberry
'cross' is the definition.
I know nothing about this answer so I cannot tell whether this works.
'wait around turning close to centre of brent' is the wordplay.
'wait' becomes 'tarry' (I've seen this before).
'around' means one lot of letters goes inside another.
'turning close' becomes 'yb' (I can't explain this - if you can you should give a lot more credence to this answer).
'to centre of' means to look at the middle letters.
The centre of 'brent' is 'e'.
'yb'+'e'='ybe'
'tarry' going around 'ybe' is 'TAYBERRY'.
Can you help me to learn more?
(Other definitions for tayberry that I've seen before include "Scottish fruit" , "Cross between blackberry and raspberry" , "Red fruit named after Scots river" , "Dark red soft fruit" .)
