"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.

Haroula, Jema - both good! (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
