    Default Too quick. Try this one

    Find below 13 x 5 letter words

    Route
    Brush
    Taper
    Train
    Trade
    Inure
    Paste
    Yeast
    Gouty
    Mitre
    Prime
    Liner
    Cider

    Add two letters to each and by re-arrangement of the letters, construct 13 x 7 letter words

    All the letters of the alphabet must be used ......only once

    Regards
    Greg

    Default not enough rainy days for this one

    One answer is as follows:

    AQ + route: equator
    BI +brush: rubbish
    CF +train: frantic
    DH + gouty: Doughty
    EZ + taper: trapeze
    JP + inure: juniper
    KW + liner: wrinkle
    LR + paste: plaster
    MN + yeast: amnesty
    OS + prime: promise
    TV + cider: verdict

    and I'll leave the last two for those still interested:
    UX + mitre =
    GY + trade =


    Regards
    Greg
