Good morning friends. Happy solving!

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!

Please withhold solutions till 5 pm BST (GMT+1) to allow others to have a go.

1. Despairing of change? A rope ends it (11)
2. Eats at stag parties? (6)
3. Want to read about the energy loss? (6)
4. Proud to be backing a potato worker (11)
5. Covers for packets of narcotics (5)

Cooee! Where is everyone? I'll leave to dine now and will return later.

I've been on nights and only just got up!
