    Dai You are a brilliant wordsmith.

    I love crosswords but can only finish the "easy" versions and as for anagrams??????. I would probably have more luck reading Russion (and before you ask I don't know one word of Russion)

    Love from Gill

    Hi Gill,

    While every word you speak is true… alas these are not mine… just examples of famous anagrams.:-D

    I do like making anagrams of friends names… perhaps I'll try a few here. 😉

    Gladnost.

    A couple of name anagrams for Gill:

    [b]Was Lead Girl!

    Swig All Dear.[/b]

    Of course, if your first name is Gillian… then:
    [b]
    Wild Ale Sangria

    Nil Earwig Salad

    Awarding Allies[/b]

    And three for Stephen:
    [b]
    Preheated Swans

    Depth Awareness

    Awards Ten Sheep[/b]

    I'd like to try a few more but I would need a surname… 🙂

    Dai.

    Hi Dai

    I was trying to work your anagrams out and then realised that you know my surname already so made anagrams out of Gill Seaward and Gillian Seaward (yes I am a Gillian but I only ever got called that when my Dad was cross with me!)

    Although we are married I never took Stephen's name (apart from on legal French documents as it is a nightmare trying to use 2 names in France)

    Stephen is Stephen Nash or to most people apart from the family Steve Nash.

    So there is another set of letters for you to peruse.

    Love from Gill xx

    Okey dokey..

    As Steve Nash he could be:

    [b]Seven Hats

    or

    Ten Shaves[/b]

    With Stephen:

    [b]Then He Snaps

    or

    Hen Spat Hens[/b]

    Dai. 🙂
