Gawd! I forgot all about these! Well, it's been very quiet here again, so I thought I'd resuscitate the unsolved remnants. Please have a go at these, or I'll have to solve them myself as, since it's been such a long time, I've forgotten the answers!
These are anagrams of local (very local to SGR) place names or businesses (funny how all the pub ones get solved!*)

Well, I suppose the end should be when there are no more anagrams left to solve before I get around to adding any more, although I certainly don't claim this discussion as my own:

Well, Grenners, you're clearly in the lead, but we can't leave Iris and Baron Evil Dick out in the cold, can we?
I think an appropriate prize is the warm glow of satisfaction…
(I was just trying to encourage a bit more activity in this site as it's been so quiet in recent months, but I got into it far more than I imagined I would!)
