[birdman]

These might be a bit easy, but they should keep you occupied for a little while.

Once again, you'll notice a theme develop... bonus point for the precise theme.

[Charles Harper]

Sorry B'man, just didn't have the mental energy-- actually, I thought somebody else would post all the answers in a jiffy, so why bother....

PS: still don't have time today to untangle your messes. If nobody solves 'em today, how about re-issuing them during the holidays?

[birdman]

You tell me when the holidays are Charles, and I'll gladly reissue!

... so much for my holiday idle hours.... Congratulations, Dude!

[James Armstrong]

Hi Charles,

Blame my insomnia! But they can't be all correct surely? I must have got some wrong. Tell you what - I'll have a go at making some more up for you in recompense. I'll do one on Moths - that should keep you going for a while...

[birdman]

Full marks, including theme to James and Geraldine...

Looking forward to your Mothagrams!

[Charles Harper]

I'm warning you!-- you do moths, and I'll do anagrammed palindromes!

But by the way, Dave, how DO you make the anagrams? Surely not with pencil and paper. Is there some sort of unscrambling software that searches for words in an array of letters?

[Grousemore]

Don't tell him,Birdman,or everyone will be able to solve your anagrams!

[Charles Harper]

AHA!
