One of the best insults I have ever seen:

George Bernard Shaw to Winston Churchill: "I am enclosing two tickets to the first night of my new play; bring a friend... if you have one."
Winston Churchill to George Bernard Shaw: "Cannot possibly attend first night; will attend second... if there is one."

Absolutely classic.

5. Add letters on either side of END to create a word that refers to someone who might serve beverages in a bar or pub.

Answer: bartender

bartENDer

Never ever underestimate a bartender. Having "temped" for just one night, I can tell you it's hard work - trying to remember orders, not spilling beer all over yourself, and finally trying to put up with louts who never learned their limit - is pretty exhausting!

Answer: endorse

ENDorse

Famous endorsements include Tiger Woods and Nike; Kate Moss and Calvin Klein; and Michael Jackson and Pepsi.

7. Add 4 letters to the beginning of END to create a word meaning to make-believe, or feign.

Answer: pretend

pretEND

Some very wise words from Scott Adams: "One way to compensate for a tiny brain is to pretend to be dead."

8. Add letters on either side of END to create a word meaning a long-running feud or argument.

Answer: vendetta

vENDetta

The origins of the word "vendetta" is actually Italian. It dates back to around the mid 1880's, when Italian families of a murdered person from Corsica or Sicily would avenge their dead, by, in turn, killing the murderer, or a family member of the murderer.

9. Add 12 letters to the end of END to create a word that refers to a doctor who specialises in hormonal disorders, e.g. diabetes.

Endocrinology is a fascinating subject. Health problems that an endocrinologist might deal with are cancers of the endocrine glands, diabetes, infertility, hypertension, metabolic disorders, and many more.

10. Add 3 letters to the beginning of END to create a word that refers to a popular story, the truth of which has not necessarily been ascertained.

Answer: legend

legEND

A legend refers to a story, or group of stories, generally passed down from generation to generation, which are believed to have taken place in history, although the facts are sketchy and have not necessarily been confirmed (this is not, however, to say that all legends are pure story!) Some popular legendary topics/people are Robin Hood and King Arthur.
