Credit Watch ~ Remit Timer? ps thanks for sending over the hurricane it's knocking lumps off my roof. Don't know how you guys can cope with the big ones. sorry for the scare (kinda) and the weather (truthfully). the last one is real close but all the others are spot on. Claps Scalp right on Framm - Following Form Phase Shape hey hey TC - not what I had in mind. cant quite make a strong enough connection between the first words but could be persuaded. Remit Timer well that's pretty much confirmation that this one works but still think there is a slightly better one. dont know what more to say without giving it away. oops. Stale Tales yes indeed Cat. well done. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

0 itachi-san Posted January 6, 2012 Report Share Posted January 6, 2012 ^ sounds good for talk smack possible answers: spare tires - extra taxer following form - later alert are the answers to subtractors plural, so 4 letter words essentially? or is that too much to ask for?

0 MissKitten Posted January 6, 2012 Report Share Posted January 6, 2012 Don't think I can solve any of these...... But is it just me, or are a lot of the old riddlers back on nowadays? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
0 plainglazed Posted January 7, 2012 Author Report Share Posted January 7, 2012 yeah, Wilson, nah. thanks for the Update dD. hope that work and study thing eases up. she's back, too oooo. nice solve t_l. thought this one would be tough as neither of the two clue words give early suggestions to the answer, imo. even had an alternate at the ready. answering your question first i-s - yes. your first answer doesn't quite work as the second word goes from plural to singular and possessive. your second answer is closer yet... teehee yes, yippee Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

0 Cavenglok Posted January 9, 2012 Report Share Posted January 9, 2012 Oh this is hard... Are the remaining two synanagrams or just anagrams? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
0 plainglazed Posted January 9, 2012 Author Report Share Posted January 9, 2012 the remaining two are solved the same as the others. no extra trick to the last one this time. thinking on how i might have come up with the last clue should suggest which word to start with but would recommend starting with the second word in the other one.

0 itachi-san Posted January 9, 2012 Report Share Posted January 9, 2012 since it hasnt been guessed yet, I'll say: sober bores. but i dont really see it as quite fitting Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
0 plainglazed Posted January 9, 2012 Author Report Share Posted January 9, 2012 since it hasnt been guessed yet, I'll say: sober bores. but i dont really see it as quite fitting that's it the definition of tire as an intransitive verb is to become weary with or bored. the spare-sober connection is as an adjective meaning not excessive, plain, simple, subdued.

For each word of each line above, find synonyms that are anagrams.
For example: Cut Open --> Reduction/Introduce
Scared ya? think these are hard enough as it is so will say that all the answers are five letter words.
