Somewhere to write about minister (5)

Ross

I believe the answer is:

padre

'minister' is the definition.
(I've seen this before)

'somewhere to write about' is the wordplay.
'somewhere to write' becomes 'pad'.
'about' becomes 're' ('re' means regarding or about).
'pad'+'re'='PADRE'

(Other definitions for padre that I've seen before include "Father" , "Chaplain to armed forces" , "clerical worker" , "A military clergyman" , "Sky pilot (military slang)" .)

I've seen this clue in The Sun and The Times.
