Post by: magus on March 25, 2013, 07:26:45 AM
THEME:   reversal of words comprised of two words
   
GOOD ONES:    
REDBEEAT, TEAROSE, MILKCHOCOLATE, MAPLESUGUR   
   
   
BTW:   
Flippered fish eaters   SEALS [English has a problem when certain nouns can be one or two words, either of which can be modified by the same adjective.  To fix this one: "Flippered eaters of fish" or "Eaters of flippered fish."]   
   
The theme was so clever that it compensates for the pedestrian cluing.   
   
   
RATING:    ;D ;D
Three grins = Loved it; Two grins = Enjoyed it; One grin = A bit bland for my taste; One teardrop = Not much fun
