Ok so here is the anagram round for the (now rather dull I know) impending pub quiz

66 replies

handlemecarefully · 04/12/2007 16:16

1 "Spice in 'em"
2 "Dolls in thongs"
3 "Cross held jurist"
4 "To wed tru'st love"
5 "A lethally new jig"
6 "He's fat, smart & rich"
7 "Cold now? Engage skis!"
8 "Means abhorrent music"
9 "The giant consumerism father"
10 "Northern seer, do help dude ride!"

There are all Christmas themed. I don't actually have the answers, the Pre-School dad who put them together for me hasn't seen fit to furnish me with these (ha bloody ha, not!). I hate anagrams but some people like them apparently

I have to say, now that you have decoded most of them, I do think the dh of my friend who did this is most awfully clever. They are great aren't they!

just picture those inappropriately dressed barbies, it completely derails your train of thought as you mentally try to 'dress' them.

MrsJohnCuSackFullOfPresents · 04/12/2007 22:52

MrsJohnCuSackFullOfPresents · 04/12/2007 22:53

They are excellent hmc and you shouldn't worry. You are right of course: nothing unethical. But if a team suspiciously gets 100% on all you must wave a bat at them or something & flush out the mumsnetter.

mollymawk · 04/12/2007 22:57

Have we done 7?

hope you don't mind me gatecrashing, I was browsing "last 15 minutes" while trying to get the energy to iron the last few shirts...

MrsJohnCuSackFullOfPresents · 04/12/2007 23:02

ah

TheDuchessOfNorksBride · 04/12/2007 23:02

HURRAH! Now we can all go to bed. Except MrsJohnCusack who has probably only just got up and can go and eat breakfast or something.

mollymawk · 04/12/2007 23:03

Well done housemum!
And very impressive that you are ironing at this time of night...

Housemum · 04/12/2007 23:08

... only because I should have done it in the day but got caught up in MN conversations and other time-passing activities!!

gigglewitchyouamerryxmas · 04/12/2007 23:31
