Good morning friends. Here are today's '5'. Hope they are sufficiently challenging. Happy solving! J

I set clues just for pleasure. I wonder if some of you excellent regulars would like to try a few? Since they're new, no letters!

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

1. University said to be unmistakable (8)

2. A dogmatic pronouncement from courses taking in eleven with obtrusively religious upbringing? (4,5)

3. Upper-class people in the French line-up give vent to annoyance (3,3,5)

4. Like someone exposing Jacob abominably, he’s spare here (5,7)

5. Aggressively male about appearance? Then do not cut down a sabre-toothed tiger (12)

Hi Jolan
Just back from a week on the Italian Riviera- sunshine, lovely food, good walks.

Good morning jolan, I trust you're well. I have #s 1 & 5 and as it's so beautiful here in Glasgow an alfresco beer or two to mull over #s 2-4 seems well in order. Cheers!

I should have a chance to have a go at these today Jolan-they look tough at first glance.

Good going Ginge. Will not take you long, I'm sure.
And Daniel, sounds like the Clyde Riviera. Keep at it!
