Like it!
Nice and simple - I'll post a solution later if no-one else does (give 'em a chance!)

I have no idea when your bedtime is: the camera feed in your house is down and the repair guy is busy.
Couple hours, I guess will be fair to them all.

And naturally you were dying to do it
Or are you at the point were you struggling to think of something new....

No, I've got three in my "WSO CCC" file ready to go when I need them - I just don't want to monopolise the game! Or force someone to do it again the next day - except Pompey boy with the FSOW of course - that wouldn't be fair either.
Pompey boy is fair game for torture, given his solution is always the same anyway!

Yes. I got a few up my sleeve, but when I look closely at them, i start to have my doubts they're any good. Sometimes it the best of a bad bunch of what's left

Or you spend ages getting them right...and some b@st@rd solves 'em in 30 seconds...

I think that's better than than not having it solved. Feel like a puzzle maker failure then.

Hectare? Anagram of teacher, not quite sure if that's what bought means?

I reckon so

Congratulations. You're up tomorrow. The bought didn't mean anything, just a puzzle filler

Time to don Worzel's thinking head.

Cryptic clues are supposed to have two parts, the definition and the cryptic bit. In this case the cryptic bit should include a word or phrase that suggests the answer is an anagram. Something like (over simplified):
Teacher mixed up but got some land.

I agree. It's easy with hindsight. It's the foresight part I struggle with.

Me too.

That's why I try to write them well in advance, and leave them alone until they have "matured". If they still make sense, I'll post 'em.

Well I'm currently working my notice with my current employer and start my new career next month. I'll be building responsive web sites and hybrid mobile apps using tools including Bootstrap, Telerik Platform and Cordova. These are technologies which I am not familiar with so I'll have to get learning. I'm at least familiar with web technologies (HTML5, CSS3 and Javascript) so this at least gives me a headstart on building web enabled pages.
Having previously used Xamarin.Android to build cross-platform mobile apps, it will be interesting to see the differences in building, testing and deploying hybrid mobile apps.
Should be fun. Exciting times ahead
