Old ladies having time fighting for remote (8)
I believe the answer is:
isolated
'remote' is the definition.
(I've seen this before)
'old ladies having time fighting' is the wordplay.
'old' becomes 'o' (common abbreviation eg in OE for Old English).
'having' is a charade indicator (letters next to each other).
'time' becomes 't' (abbreviation).
'fighting' indicates an anagram (I've seen this in other clues).
'o'+'ladies'+'t'='oladiest'
'oladiest' is an anagram of 'ISOLATED'.
'for' acts as a link.
(Other definitions for isolated that I've seen before include "kept apart from others" , "kept separate" , "Set apart, quarantined" , "Single" , "Cut off, remote" .)
