Good morning friends. I've had an exceptionally busy week (retired???) and was thinking of omitting "5" this week. But, at the last minute, I put together the following, Keeping my fingers crossed that they'll be acceptable. 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) to allow others to have a go.

1. Charge in to dry up tar (8)

2. Foil, say, transforming window-pane while keeping out air in motion? (6)

3. In order to trap a warthog, I bide my time, hiding in the same place (6)

4. Publicly caress money connected to crack (8)

5. Brave child, going inside a model representing the scene of Christ's nativity (5)

Afternoon Nolan, hope you and yours are well. I have some spare time today, so will hopefully be around to post @5 :)

Hi jolan
Just had a quick look. I have an answer for #3, but most of the clue seems irrelevant. Am I missing something?

Good day also to Ari, Chrise (not relevant?), Rossim and Jazzy. I'm sure you must find it very frustrating Ari. Can't imagine how this is happening. Spook(y)!
