More Tom Swifties.(For example "I'll have a martini," said Tom, drily.) As ever, grovelling apologies for any re-runs

Some of these are very clever and quite tough, so being all heart, I've given you first letter and length as a starter grin·

-1. "I'm going to use the ejector seat," Tom e-------- r------.
-2. "I've taken sponsorship for my baseball glove," Tom a-------.
-3. ".../---/.-./.-./-.--" said Tom r-----------.
-4. "It's less than 90 degrees," said Tom a------.
-5. "I want to renew my membership," Tom r-------.
-6. "I'm in the process of documenting my BASIC program", Tom r-------.
-7. "Don't touch that turtle," Tom s------.
-8. "I only know of seven in the world," Tom said w----------.
-9. "Past, present or future?" Tom asked t------.
-10. "All I did was pull the spark plug wire," said Tom, s------.
