Could someone put me out of my misery for "It's no good flapping about old peoples unfavourable opinions" (5) please?

I'm quite sure I have the entry as something a Rasta might say and how to get it but can't confirm the definition of the full form.

Otherwise done, quite pleasant this week!

Thank you smartie. I thought I had replied to you yesterday but it doesn't seem to have posted. Captcha problem I think.

Just one for me, please.

Endorsement passing test, one with only a single line of symmetry (6). I see the definition of single line of symmetry when the taken letters are put back, but can't figure out the wordplay part at all.

Hi, quiz,

Put TESTI (“test, one” in clue) before the grid entry, and you get a word meaning “endorsement”.
