Mitzicryptic Day 8

Q Two Days off sound like a feeble goal (7)
A weekend

Q Canberra finds the cash (7)
A capital

(NB Canberra is the capital city of Australia. It's alright, I keep forgetting too.)

Not sure about this one:
Q Drum that got a good run in France (5)
A snare? (the word "ran" is backwards in 'snare')

Those 2 from the mini, and here's a dreaded clue from the Monday Omega:

Q Tool used to get rid of workers you no longer need (3)
A Axe

Time to hide the crossword book and get back to real work!

These answers made a little more sense to me-- but that still doesn't mean I get it. Your skill amazes me.
