I assumed the "on" - olinist on tramp think

If I'm wrong, can we have the noodles, Miss - please Miss? Haven't had the noodles since the days of Denis smile

Thanks, Lex!

Noodles?? scared eek

Rog's justification was correct in my view (it was a clue from elsewhere), and not unusual use of "on."

It's tough to deal with the relaxed rules of a British-style cryptic. "On" does not place "tramp" first, it places it last. But this is Lex, not Denis, so no noodles today, just a red flag. kissy

Bu(il)ds = moulds blackkitty

Revisiting the use of "on," I think that in British puzzles it can denote a previous or subsequent position but in the case of a down clue possibly more often previous (on top of rather than added on)
