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·

As ever, an asterisk represents a "real" hyphen.

One answer each for first 24 hours, please.

-1. "I hope you'll attend our wedding," said Tom i---------.
-2. "I didn't make the basketball team", Tom said s------.
-3. “You could always sound-proof your apartment,” Tom al----- noi----.
-4. "Give me a quick kiss before we eat," said Tom p--------.
-5. "I've just been lulled by the sound of the world's greatest tenor," said Tom p-------.
-6. "I'm getting into the aquascape business," said Tom p------ h-- r--------.
-7. "I've never had measles," Tom said r-----.
-8. "My washing machine won't stop turning," Tom said a---------.
-9. "It's an old phone bill from one of A T & T's takeovers!" Tom b-------.
-10. "My sign is cancer, what's my horoscope?" Tom asked c-------.


To waste one second of one's life is a betrayal of one's self.
I wonder what's on television...?

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