| 1. | Wordplay is far too tortuous to be fair to the solver. | | 2. | I quite like this, but the 'initially' stands out in the surface reading. | | 3. | From Viceroy of India to RMS is asking a lot of the solver. | | 4. | Rather obscure reference and I think most solvers would consider U-boat as one word | | 5. | U-boat is one word so 'initially' = U, not u,b | | 6. | convoluted and doesn't work | | 7. | I'm not sure a hyphenated word can have two initials. Or that 'blew' indicates both parts be anagrammed |
