Pick fruit around English coast on vacation, right? (8)
I believe the answer is:
plectrum
'pick' is the definition.
(a guitar pick)
'fruit around english coast on vacation right?' is the wordplay.
'fruit' becomes 'plum' (plum is a kind of fruit**).
'around' is an insertion indicator.
'english' becomes 'e' (abbreviation).
'on vacation' means to remove the middle letters.
'right?' becomes 'r' (common abbreviation).
'coast' with its middle taken out is 'ct'.
'e'+'ct'+'r'='ectr'
'plum' enclosing 'ectr' is 'PLECTRUM'.
(Other definitions for plectrum that I've seen before include "Guitarist's implement" , "Object used to pluck stringed instrument" , "Guitar pick" , "It's used to pluck, a guitar say" , "Small piece of plastic for plucking musical strings" .)
