Hey Bonners,
the numbering screwed up on this post…
2, 8 (which you’ve answered as 7), 9, and 4 are correct.
(Matinee, Unfinished Symphony, Green with Envy, and Robin Hood).
3, you have the right idea with Skating, and with Ice, but it’s not quite correct the way you have it.
So, that leaves 1, 3, 5, 6, 7, and 10.
10 might be the hardest. It’s a doosy.

3 – Skating over the ice?
6 – turn the other cheek
#1 I saw in the TTC a while ago and always wondered what it was. Somebody please answer it already so I can get started on my work for today.

1: Back to square 1
3: Skating on thin ice
7: First Lady

Turn the other cheek is correct for #6
So are Tien’s answers for 1, 3, and 7.
5 and 10 remain unanswered.
