war.tplayNicK Dollor17 Windsor RoadQOOMANOHESTEROambHdgostiiropei a bodAUGUST 1997 REVISITEDIn which your sub-editor continues a list he started a surprisingly long time ago..I'm amazed. No, really, I am. I was thinkingabout what list I should do for this edition,and I thought - "Aha! How about goingback to that list I started a couple of monthsago?". This was the one of probable sevenswith no anagram, and I am - as I say -amazed to discover that I did part 1 (themost probable 50) back In August 1997. It'sdefinitely overdue for a continuation piece -so here goes with numbers 51-100.Any tangents at which I go off may not beunrelated to the loop of 1999 Eurovisionentries presently emanating from my PCspeakers - you have been warned!AENEOUS: As seems to be happening a lotlately, I open up with something I've donebefore - in this Instance, a description ofthings which are a shining bronze colour.AEONIAN: Another timeless word, meaningtimeless. I think these must be coming upbecause I've done things with lots of vowelsbefore.ALIENEE: The person to whom a propertyis transferred (an AUENOR being the personwho does the transferring).AREOLAE: The correct plural of AREOLA,which is a little sunken spot of varioustypes.AREOLES: The plural of AREOLE, which isan AREOLA. Is it just me, or is this not reallyfunny yet?ATEBRIN: Hmm. If you don't know theword at the top of the list of 7s fromRETAIN, why not? Still, I could excuse younot knowing it's a yellow medidny powderstuff (even though I said it was in my debutarticle two and a half years ago...)AUREOLE: Humph. This is a holy crown, orhalo, or similar. And I've done it before. I'mfrustrated.BETAINE: Sweet-tasting crystals that occurin sugar beet and elsewhere. You would beforgiven for thinking It's sugar, but I thinkit's not Qutfethe same thing.CINEREA: Ah, the old grey matter. I'mcertain that that's never been in evidence inprevious articles...DOURINE: A contagious horse illnesscaused by something unpronounceable.EBRIATE: A curiosity here. Just as"flammabte" and "innammabte" mean thesame thing, so too do EBRIATE andINEBRIATE - sort of drunk.21
