| 1. | I think both parts of a subtractive anagram should have an anagrind, unless the letters are already in the right order. | | 2. | Almost great but I don’t think “drunk” works in the surface | | 3. | Nice connection between Hamlet and Horatio, but the surface needs ‘drank’ not ‘drunk’ | | 4. | drank or drunk? cf Hamlet ate food vs Hamlet eaten food. If drunk is used as past tense, that's archaic | | 5. | need to indicate that T&O are not next to each other – but nice concise clue |
