Thanks, jolan - hope these are correct.

3 OBIS
4 SWORD DANCE
5 WHO GOES THERE

I've only one to offer:
I get worse each week :(

3. OBIS (charms or amulets ) hidden in text

At first I was thinking of plural of the Japanese Obi which
made no sense.

Looking forward to the other solutions with anticipation.
Thanks Jolan for the challenge.

Thanks jolan
Not surprised I didn't get the others!

I had sword dance written down but could not parse it so thought it was wrong.

Bugger, I had both 'log' and 'game' in my head. No chance of getting #1 but annoyed about # 2.

Thanks again, jolan.

Great going you folk! Welcome also to Jazzy, Rambler, Wonder where's Tont these. I miss him. Ari has scored 5/5 (must also have gone to the YMCA) Nice going. Chris

I'ii append my workings. Am rushing out to a meeting in that village and will peek in when I return later. I wish Ari would stop sending that procession of low pressure areas over here. Were expecting tow more (even more severe) soon.

1. record = log; spinning = rolling; LOGROLLING = mutual aid among politicians (Chambers def).

2. kick off (sl) = die; willing = game; DIE GAME = to keep up one’s spirit to the last (Chambers def).

3. has = contains; OBIS = charms

4. point = S; anagram? = word dance?; SWORD DANCE = “entertainment involving weapons”

5. health body = WHO; extends = goes (that road goes to/extends to London); there = to that place (Chambers def); WHO GOES THERE? = guarded enquiry (cryptic)

Thank you very much for participating

Bless

John.

PS That's TONY (not Tont(o). Kemo Sabay!

Tony was around on Saturday 8th feb. on another forum.

Nice ones, Jolan. Sorry about the weather. It was 2 F at breakfast and it hasn't gotten above freezing in ages. More snow coming on Thursday too.

Business as usual in Greenwich Village:
