    Wahoo! I didn't understand 3D's clue until after I'd finished

      I might have gotten a bit too cute with the cluing on that one. Glad you got there!
      • Porcos 🤓1:51 · 2023-01-11T16:31:08.723Z
        I'll be honest, I still don't get it. Either because English isn't my first language, or because I'm a bit slow. Nah, it's got to be the first explanation.

          These types of clues are more common in "PandA" crosswords, and I believe that if you split up REIN and place it in the clue you get REstraIN, which also means rein (in)

            This is the correct answer.👆

            I still don't get it, and I'm a native English speaker, so I guess that leaves only the second explanation for me!
