Bait and switch: Each clue below can be answered by changing one letter in the given, capitalized word, and then anagramming the letters. Some easy, some may be alterative spellings hyphenated or Britspeak, and a few that may need the Stitchionary. There may even be the odd two-word answer...

Plenty to go round, so feel free to grab two or three.

REPENT

-1. First batsman in cricket
-2. Alloy
-3. Seabird
-4. Serving dish
-5. Of late occurrence
-6. Toughen by sudden cooling
-7. To fret, complain
-8. Harold, playwright
-9. Primps
-10. Render ineffectual
-11. Starter
-12. Illegally-brewed liquor
-13. Stand-in for a sovereign during absence
-14. Gambler
-15. Polycyclic aromatic crystalline hydrocarbon, C 1 6 H 1 0
-16. 40% of a pony - think money
-17. Curdling agent
18. "Die _____", German newspaper - replace the "p"
-19. The point within a sphere equidistant from all points on the surface
-20. Believed to lie beneath the earth's surface
-21. One with extensive skill or knowledge
-22. Actress, portrayed Baroness Thatcher
-23. Offer for payment etc
-24. Coring tool
-25. Character; estimation in the view of others
-26. Annoy
-27. Feel aggrieved at
-28. To slacken
-29. Period or term of holding something
-30. Having all parts or elements


To waste one second of one's life is a betrayal of one's self.

Sometimes lost is where you need to be. Just because you don't know your direction doesn't mean you don't have one.
