I've done an old "Paul" crossword from the Guardian.
One of the clue's is:-
Poet's written about "The Ring",keeping Rex and Rex together? (6,4)
The answer is "toilet roll"
Can anybody tell me how that works?

[margarettom]

I think the poet is possibly Eliot, but can't see the rest

[dannyk13]

Eliot(poet) reversed + r(rex) inside toll(ring)

[neversaydie]

Yes,now I see Eliot, And I can see the ring=toll and r=Rex but still can't see the other Rex. But thanks for Eliot.

[JJ109]

Eliot (reversed) + R(ex) "inside" toll (ring) = "andrex" + toilet roll

[neversaydie]

Andrex!!!!! Doh! Thanks. So clever.
