Is English Francis' first language?

If not that would explain his somewhat curt, CAPITALISED answer. Or perhaps he was just being smug and insulting?

Keep up the good work Jolan

My suggested solutions are-

1)CROCKERY - Dishes...Anag (out) CHURCH GROTTO KEY less THOUGHT (thoughtless)

2) RENDITION - Double definition.

3) ATTENUATE - Become thin ..AT TEN (two hours before midnight) U (you) ATE (dined)

4) LUSHEST - Most rich...LUSHES (drunks) T (detox centre)

5) STOUT-HEARTED - Game ..TOUT (solicitor) has SHEAR (cut) TED outside
S TOUT HEAR TED

Here are my offerings:

1. CROCKERY (dishes) (anag) "church grotto key" less "thought"
2. RENDERING
3. ATTENUATE (sounds like "at ten you ate"
4. OSTRICH (hidden in the clue/sand)
I've not tried sand detox. Does it work?

I agree with Tony- I particularly liked 5 which took me a while to work out.

Well done as always Jolan

5. took me ages. another cracking collection Jolan.

have you considered doing a jolan's five with a theme. might make for an amusing change once in a while. knowing you there would be a nasty twist in it.

We await your judgment, Jolan, but thanks again for another devious set of clues.
