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 hereby announce I no longer wish to be called Prince", said Tom f-------.
-2. "I've upgraded my old piano", said Tom g------.
-3. "I've swapped over from writing prose", said Tom i--------.
-4. "I've joined a singing club", said Tom g--------.
-5. "Three, forty seven, eleven, ninety five....", said Tom u-------.
-6. "I know how the German encrypted their wartime messages", said Tom e------------.
-7. "I've fused all the lights", said Tom s------.
-8. "I been told that the guy with The Police needs a support," Tom said t---------.
-9. "We must go to Oberammergau this year, said Tom p-----------.
-10. "This fertilizer was meant to be used on grass", said Tom f--------.

1. formally wave


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