Travellers in damson jam (6)
I believe the answer is:
nomads
'travellers' is the definition.
(nomad is a kind of traveller)
'damson jam' is the wordplay.
'damson' can be anagrammed to 'NOMADS'.
However, I am unsure how this is indicated.
'in' acts as a link.
Can you help me to learn more?
(Other definitions for nomads that I've seen before include "They travel all year round" , "Travellers" , "Wandering people, roaming tribes" , "They travel from place to place with no permanent home" , "They travel from place to place seeking food and pasture" .)
