| 1. | Unsound, I'm afraid. You can't count 'stiff' as figuring in both definitions. 'Cool place for stiff, stiff joint' would have been sound. | | 2. | In double definition clues there should be no overlap between the two definitions and the two meanings defined should be different. | | 3. | Not really a double def, as both lead to the same meaning of morgue – see 8 | | 4. | Not really a DD but two versions of the same punning definition based on "stiff", with "stiff" somewhat unfairly spanning both. | | 5. | overlaps so not good. also it's not classic double definition, it's two versions of the same definition | | 6. | Not a real DD. Both defs are of the same thing. 2nd def would require a separate dictionary entry like FR noun of haughtiness in Chambers |
