Strange blokes with time for remnant (7)

Ross

I believe the answer is:

oddment

'remnant' is the definition.
(synonyms)

'strange blokes with time' is the wordplay.
'strange' becomes 'odd' (I've seen this before).
'blokes' becomes 'men' (bloke can informally mean a man).
'with' is a charade indicator (letters next to each other).
'time' becomes 't' (abbreviation).
'odd'+'men'+'t'='ODDMENT'

'for' is the link.

(Other definitions for oddment that I've seen before include "An isolated article, something left over" , "Scrap" , "a bit spare" , "Remnant" , "Piece left over, no match" .)

I've seen this clue in The Daily Express.
