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. "You can go in now," Tom a-------.
-2. "Nay!" said Tom h-------.
-3. "This troupe 'The Humpty Dumpty's - what kind of show do they put on?" asked Tom e---------.
-4. "I chop down trees for a living," said Tom l----------.
-5. "My mother's sister will be here any minute," said Tom e----------.
-6. "That's another plus for you," said Tom p---------.
-7. "Let's go for another horse-ride," Tom r-------.
-8. "I've brought back the lorry you let me borrow," said Tom t----------.
-9. "This is the Netherlands," Tom stated f-----.
-10. "For what we are about to receive, may the Lord make us truly thankful," said Tom g---------.


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.
