Good afternoon friends. Caught on the hop today! Thought I had my 5 clues ready to post but found I had forgotten to do 'em. Old age? :) Quickly put the following together. Hope they're not too sub-standard. 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. Another woe! Ivan ain’t no Native American (5)

2. Part of Great Britain was emptied and refilled with booze (5)

3. Up in arms about a belligerent’s right to seize and use other property (6)

4. Permanently unqualified to box, for example (9)

5. Measure one piece of grain to finally determine it’s rudimentary (8)

Hi Jolan,
I've seen #2 immediately but have work to do this afternoon. However I'll try and get back later.

Good afternoon jolan, I trust you're well. I've "returned" to this planet and only got #2 on reading, probably the booze connection!

Hi there Rossim and RE. Thinking about going out myself. The sun is shining but the forecast if wind and rain. Gee! How unexpected :))

Still hoping they're not too obvious.

Hi Jolan.
I've been following your "thread" for about a year now and for the first time I think I may have a couple solved.
But it's "bedtime" here.
Guess I'll have to wait to see if I'm correct.
Thanks for your efforts.
Very enjoyable.
