can anyone give me a clue for
31 Legal notes made in error about Moriartys assistant (9)
46 The old man took no tea with sugar (7)
61 Ancient city where Syrians went to a chinwag (7)

61 is an anagram of to a chin
Still puzzling with 31 and 46

31 is an anagram of Made around Moriartys assistant ..who was Sebastian (?????) the 5 other letters you need for the anagram !

Thanks to those who gave me hints. I can see only one word for for the food in 51 and I understand the 'fast' part; I presume 'poor' refers to an anagram of an abbreviation for 'pensioner' but I don't see the neeed for 'old'.

For pensioner try .... oap !

Thanks sillyboy, but pensioner itself is OAP, so why the additional word 'old'?

Not necessarily so. My husband retired at age 51 on a company pension, so in actuality a pensioner but not an old age one.

no 34 A count is seen in pennyslvania joint (7)
any clues please .

Funny that was question 51 being referred to, and your husband LadyBee retired at 51
