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·

One answer each for first 24 hours, please. By the way, "-" shows a hyphen in the answer

-1. "I blew another tyre," said Tom f-----.
-2. "The shin bone's connected to the thigh bone", Tom and Mrs Swifty s--- j------.
-3. "I'd like to play the glockenspiel," Tom c----- --.
-4. "I've finally solved the !%$*#! Rubik's Cube," said Tom c----------.
-5. "I fell into an Italian river," said Tom --------.
-6. "The roof is will collapse if I put my arms down", Tom u-----.
-7. “I count three horizons,” Tom said h-----------.
-8. "I unclogged the drain with a vacuum cleaner," said Tom s---------.
-9. "6, 28, 496 and 8128 are special numbers," said Tom p--------.
-10. "It's time I took a really good look at myself," Tom said r-----------.

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