I'm enjoying all the clues so far. Impressed with the efforts to combine both words in one clue, or a pair. Just under 24 hours left in the competition.

Jono and Buddy, I saw the clue in the Guardian as well, and was unperturbed. Some of the definitions of "on" in Chambers are "against", "close to, beside". Works for me.
