A few from a recent paper to hopefully tickle your fancy:

* 1. Unfireable, get the picture? (5,2) catch on

* 2. Down the road with former President Reagan (5,2) later on

* 3. Knock up a score? (7) compose

* 4. May be taken out to have a drink somewhere in Ireland (4) cork

* 5. Doesn't matter what an ex-bookie does (5,2,4) makes no odds

* 6. Type a letter between R and U (4) sort

* 7. Should that be so, where is it packed? (2,5,4) in which case

* 8. Until I left - leaving to go into Lady's Watches (7) hunters

* 9. My turn, mum (4) gosh

* 10. Appalled to see a "phantom" spelled with "a" instead of "o" (6) aghast


Enjoy!

10. aghast
a ghost with "a" instead of "o"

1: catch on! Thassa real beaut, Lex!

6. sort (s or t)

All good!

2. later on
late+ron

4. May be taken out to have a drink somewhere in Ireland (4)

cork

(double def.) may be taken out to have a drink/somewhere in Ireland

Thanks for two more correct answers: I see that Sondi has taken what I would have expected to be Treval's clue!

7. in which case (double def)

Correct Jema: I rather liked that one!

5. Makes no odds (double def)

Good answer: I wrestled with that one for a while thinking that it would end in "no bets!"

Me too - I was struggling trying to make "place no bets" fit, then the lightbukb went on...

First letter hints now added for the last few.

9. my = gosh (as in my!) - direct
go (turn) + sh (mum) = gosh

This one took a while - I kept trying to think of a double def for my turn and mum. (Note to me: Remember that punctuation can be misleading.)

I liked #7 too, Lex.
