Delay basket (6)
I believe the answer is:
hamper
I believe this is a double definition.
'delay' is the first definition.
(thesaurus)
'basket' is the second definition.
(eg food hamper)
(Other definitions for hamper that I've seen before include "Hinder; basket" , "Stand in the way of the food basket" , "Obstruct or delay with food basket" , "basket case?" , "Picnic box" .)
