5d Thick - 'tick' (jiffy, bags; contains) 'h(ard)'
15a Eggnog - 'eg' (for one) + 'go(i)ng' (running, heartlessly, back)
26a Erase - 'era' (important date) + 'se(e)' (short 'notice')
5 Thick - Jiffy - Tick round H

26 Era + Se(e) [notice]
Thick (heavy) = H9ard) in Tick (a jiffy)

Erase (cancel) = era (date)+ se(e)
