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. "Where did you put the crowbar?" Tom p----.
-2. "Our family is going camping next week," Tom said i-------.
-3. "That's an ugly hippopotamus!" said Tom h-------------.
-4. "Now I can do some painting," said Tom e-----.
-5. "I've just paid my annual subscription," Tom r---------
-6. "I won't tell you anything about my salivary glands," said Tom s----------.
-7. "Is your name Frank Lee?" Tom asked f------.
-8. "I only use a shampoo," said Tom u--------------.
-9. "Dinna wave that axe aboot, Jimmy!" said Tom h---------.
-10. "It's the quotient of two integers," said Tom r---------.
-11. "Emily has put on weight," said Tom e-----------.
-12. "Have I been emasculated?" Tom d-------.

10. rationally 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.

Haroula, Jema - both good! wave (I just love that one, Haroula!)

niteowl, nice try but doesn't match mine. You're in the right area - think of a verb describing what glands do, and what would also refer to Tom's not wanting to discuss it think
