Welcome everyone to the ANAGRAM CRACKER CHRISTMAS SPECIAL

A game with 30 anagrams - with all of the answers related to a common theme -

                                                               THE FESTIVE SEASON

 

                                                            THE ANAGRAMS:

 

erase singsong set

miss march retry

pay nephew ray

dispatching drums

cars harm crickets

resist rematch

drastic charms

this tech is warm

snail grocers

I know a sledge song

gladly use nan

weird mint

dance and travel

knew of lass

a strong toast

a fit shy girl

enlist

omit sleet

on to sidecar

reborn bats ride

perhaps try a tap

me in epics

mop an item

hid healthy novelty

big onyx ad

no cheaper tea

racers buy crane

wax prams prang pipe

emerged unwilling

the forecast brightens him

 

HINTS:

some answers have more than one word 

the number of words in the anagram is not necessarily the same number of words in the answer

 

RULES:

Only one anagram per post.

Please post one anagram and then answer ([anagram] = [answer])

Please wait until someone else has posted before posting again.

 

The game is open to all members.

Whether you are a new member, a member who has not played in previous word games, or one of the "regulars" who has joined in with Word Hunt Diamond game or wordsearch games, you are all welcome...

I hope you all enjoy the new game... some of the anagrams are easier to solve; some are more difficult.

Thank you for your interest and taking part. Good luck, everyone
