Dean Mayer continues to flout the accepted rules of clueing. But I think I've solved them all this week except: 5a Was party host married in this spot? (6) ?A?D?? and 8d Farmer is temporarily bagging growing plant material (8) ??R?S?E? If the latter is FORESTER, the last letter of 5a is F. But I don't think there is any word to be got from ?A?D?F Help appreciated from D. Mayer fans.
