1st= (3 points each): 1 (through gritted teeth: I despise the way in which the comp. anag. is explained, with the poor reader having to work out what is going on. Why can't we be given the actual letters? In this case it's pretty obvious, but it often isn't. And it's no excuse to say "Azed does it in his Slips so it's OK"), 48 (nounal anag. ind., but I'm with Brian Greer on this: no problem). 3rd= (2 points each): 3, 15, [28}. 6th= (0.5 points each): 7, 11, 16, 19, 36, 37
