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 don't think that's a molar", Tom said i---------.
-2. “I can’t find my CD player,” said Tom t---------.
-3. "This is the one-thousandth Swifty," said Tom g------.
-4. "Picture quality is the best on the HD channels," Tom said d-----------.
-5. "I like to make things," Tom said c-------.
-6. "Let's get married," said Tom d-----------.
-7. "I've removed all the leaves in my yard," Tom said r-------.
-8. "My voice is deep," Tom said b--------.
-9. "That insect of the superfamily Apoidea is in pain," Tom b-------.
-10. "Now I can do some painting," said Tom e-----.

Thanks, Bob! That was a great answer, far better than mine! You get an honorary cigar praise

I'll leave mine open for a while yet...

Good call, Cheryl! grin

Gail - nice try but not mine. What is a deep voice known as operatically? think

Remi - nice try, but doesn't start with that letter... wave

Getting closer, Lex - you've nailed the first 3 letters. Think "in an offhand manner" think

I had thought of detachedly for 6, but that is not enough letters, nor is disunitedly. smile

How about disjointedly??
