Run out and take a squint around the end of the street (5)
I believe the answer is:
peter
'run out and' is the definition.
I can't judge whether this defines the answer.
'a squint around the end of the street' is the wordplay.
'a squint' becomes 'peer' (I've seen this in another clue).
'around' indicates putting letters inside.
'the end of the' suggests the final letters.
The final letter of 'street' is 't'.
'peer' going around 't' is 'PETER'.
'take' acts as a link.
Can you help me to learn more?
(Other definitions for peter that I've seen before include "One of the Apostles" , "- Sellers, twentieth century English comedian" , "Boy's name - safe" , "One of Jesus' disciples" , "' - - Pan' by Barrie" .)
