Good morning friends. Here are today's clues. Hope they will prove entertaining. Happy thinking. J

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 (GMT + 1) to allow others to have a go.

1. France counts out historical homesteads (5)

2. Doctor Clarke hit papa having removed a part of the head (8)

3. Arrogant when drunk Andrew takes power (4,3,6)

4. “Be wisely worldly, but not worldly wise”, for example, translated into Matabele (12)

5. Releases about British Standards Institute turning to flying saucers? (8)

Good morning Jolan, I hope both you and your wife are well.

Have got 2 & 4 - will ponder the rest :)

Good morning to you. We're both fine, thank you (I'm having a wee bit of surgery Thursday - day-surgery). You're quick off the mark this morning. Hope the rest go well.

Glad you're both well - I hope the surgery is not too painful.

Have #5 now as well - will try to post later

back to work:(

Hi jolan - good luck with your surgery!
I see 4 and 5, but I will be out this afternoon, so may not have the time to work out the others.

I'll have to check in much later to see the answers.

Enjoying the clues Jolan, I believe that I have the first four...but I've been wrong before! Ha ha

I have 2 (not seen it spelled like that before) and 3 now.

Have 5 as well now....a record for me, so I'm bound to be wrong somewhere.

Hi jolan
Have just returned home, so will print off your clues and ponder over lunch. Hope all goes with well with your day surgery. J

Just solved #3 and #4 so far
