Mad Ade's Minus Letter Anagrams #4
In this teaser, the idea is to identify the blanked words. The secret is that each word is an anagram of the previous word, but minus one letter.
For example
The ------- mopped up the spilt ------ and then made sure all the work surfaces were -----.
The answer for the first word would be "cleaner", then remove the "N" and make into "cereal", then remove an "E" to make "clear".
Now try these.
The ------- turned up the classroom ------ and continued his lesson about the planet -----.
The Madadian Murderer had run out of ------- on how to administer his ------, so decided to just use a plain old -----.
------- the hold up had cost Mad Ade ------, and he was dreading any further ------.
