I set crossies just for pleasure. I wonder if some of you excellent regulars would like to try a few of my clues? Since they're new, no letters!
It’s been suggested that solutions are withheld till 5 pm to allow others to have a go.

1. Can be picked to return in black (10)
2. Adherent then jumps on the spot (5,3,4)
3. Before out of date small skirts (8)
4. Hops from inertial guidance system to astronavigation (6)
5. Indian ashram challenge, to assuage shaky foreigners in sixty seconds (8)

Well done.

Four easyish clues of a Telegraph standard & one tricky one.
We'll see what 5 pm brings.

Thank you Tony and well done too.

Although I've nor done the Telegraph for years, I would have hoped my clues would be at about that level. It's nice you 'saw' this. I am unable to clue above this level without using more difficult words, which I don't want to do.

Off now to celebrate St. David's Day.

Dydd Gwyl hapus i bawb!

very quiet

2. Adherent then jumps on the spot (5,3,4)

there and then?

1. selectable.
4. dances.
5. shoshoni.

didn't get 3.

I only got selectable and dances,I was waiting for Tony to reply as he seems to think it's so easy

Yes, I was waiting for Tony as well. It's hard to see what the point of his 11.31a.m. posting was,apart from telling us how clever he is.

Just in, now out again to St. David's Day service.

You goddit Ixion (anag - jumps)

Well done Terry (1,4,5), as usual. You're spot on

The remaining one. ???a?s??

Back at 9'ish

Sorry Tonyw - missed you out (confused with Tony). Ta for your contribution

Or to SAY to us how clever he is.
Perhaps he will now post the answer to the one clue which has not yet been given.We will see.
