Hi everybody - just having a peek on this very rainy and windy day.
Nice to see Andyc, Jazzy, RE, Ari and Rambler (of 'coffee' fame).
Ari. Not really a "Yankee buster"! Think John Hancock, Thomas Jefferson, ....

Thanks for the clues, jolan

1 MOJO
2 WEARIES
3 REDTOPS?
4 COUNTER-JUMPER
5 ACID TEST

1- MOJO
2- WEARIES
3- still drawing a blank, thought something like biopics
4- COUNTER-JUMPER
5- ACID TEST

Here are my offerings:

1. Mojo
2. wearies
3. ??
4. counter-jumper?
5. acid test

A little easier this week, but still
a bit too tricky for me. Thanks jolan x.

1. MOJO - (J) introduction in moo (low) - def, magic

2. WEARIES - containment clue - def, tires

3. REDCAPS ???

4. COUNTER JUMPER - trounce corrupt (anagram fodder and indicator) + jumper (top) - def contemptuous shop assistant

5. ACID TEST - &lit ?

Just realised that my answer to 3 is'nt correct - d'oh!!

Thanks for the usual Monday brain stretch and hope to see you next week :)

Also looking forward to seeing the correct answer

For 3 I was going with camerae on the basis of camera catching megapixels and legislative chamber.
For 5 I thought viva voce

Well done Rambler, Ari and Jazzy, all 4/5

Perhaps #3 is not quite fair (what about the hint to Ari?). We'll see, from your comments.

You've solved some and now...

#3 ?R??E?S

framers ?

well done jazzy :)
