Mutual Anagrams

Mutual Anagrams


I started solving crosswords in the year 1996 in the first year of engineering college.
Then I was on a break for almost a decade and resumed in 2014 trying to spend 15 minutes a day at least.
It is perhaps the only part of my life that is connected to the Daily Mail of the UK,
since the Economic Times syndicates their crossword.
I have collected a few solutions which are anagrams of each other.
There’s a certain simple pleasure observing them. I have posted some of these on Twitter in the past.
These are from the last two years or so. 


WANT SARDINES  
SAINT ANDREWS
CABINET DOOR 
NOTICE BOARD
CANADIAN MINERS 
AMERICAN INDIANS
ERRATIC RUSSIAN
CURTAIN RAISERS
URGES NICHOLAS

DECLARE ISOTOPE

MILTON'S PREFACE
SELF IMPORTANCE

TITANIC SWINDLE
IDENTICAL TWINS
PILOTS DEFENCE
SELF DECEPTION
NILE CRUSTACEAN

YOUNGSTER'S IDOL
SOUL DESTROYING
FERRIS WHEEL

COMMENTS VARIED
INVERTED COMMAS
ROUGH LIFESTYLE
SELF RIGHTEOUSLY
PEERS INTERFERE
FREE ENTERPRISE


Of course they would be more fun with the clues but I enjoyed the general overlap between the
subject matter of the words by themselves. 
Let me know how you like them. There’s another set of mutual anagrams but they are less common.
Ex; HOT WATER BOTTLE  - WHAT BETTER TOOL


I’ll save that for another day. Salute to the amazing setters.
