Cool 20 More Anagrams
Probably the last time I do twenty, as it's hard to keep to a theme.



But I've managed it this time (bonus point for getting it, as usual), although it does get a bit tenuous!



Here you go...



1. TRULY ROTTEN TANNER

2. SO? SEND DELICACIES!

3. C.I.S? SNUG POLITICAL ACCORD!

4. SHY ROD - A WINDBLOWN RAMBLER

5. LIBYAN WATERLOO

6. BIRDBRAIN CARTOON

7. CURSE FROST

8. A SLIM STRETCHER REAPPEARED

9. RARE BREED LAWS

10. IRWIN REVERSED

11. WILL, WAFT FASTER!

12. MARGO - NARCOLEPTIC

13. NAOMI CONGRATULATES MARINE

14. ABIDING HUMORISMS

15. TEACHER KNEW KIT

16. FACILE TECHNOCRACY

17. HENDERSON? HIP ONCE!

18. WINGED PARROTS

19. GWEN'S A PLUMBER

20. RIBALD REVS FRY RIGS

Wow, I'm really stretching a point now!
How about EARED WARBLERS for number 9.
Being totally unfamiliar with the names of 'overseas' birds I will have to get myself some better equipment if I want to compete seriously.
Thanks for putting in the great effort, Birdman. (PS. I miss seeing your friendly face now you have changed your image)
