Sometimes you see a bonus on your rack – realise it won’t play, so you move on. But there may be another playable anagram. The following racks all make two 7 letter anagrams, and in many cases can be ‘connected’ by a simple sentence. (Sometimes easily, sometimes outrageously). Thinking of the sentence will help you remember the second word.
For example :
ADEEISS In former times if you had a ******* you went to the ******* to recover.
ADEGRTY Disco-dancers ******* on the dance floor to the Bee Gees song ‘*******’.
Why not solve these anagrams… and make your own memorable sentence? PS It doesn’t matter if you don’t the exact meaning of a word, if you think you can imagine a meaning, that’s good enough!
