    I enjoyed it.

      However, I'm not getting #5, even though I solved it.

        For 5a I believe "waste pipes"=SEWER, subtracting "hospital"=ER

        I'm bad at these but I did sorta figure it out!

          Super clean, all the clues feel fun and fair!

            (also, you might want to add the "cryptic" tag)

              I don't get ASH, but that's a me issue. Good puzzle! :D

                  I get that, what does the tree have to do with anything?

                    An ash is a type of tree :D this one confused me too at first, it's like "a tree" (ash) or "HAS, fallen" (ash)
