Deny dish endlessly blocks sink (6) I have d?s?w? So the answer seems to be disown. But I don't get the " blocks sink" part .
And " small empty boxes having a screw loose." I have ?n?a?e. So I suppose the answer is insane. But I don't get the empty boxes bit.

Can I register for my tutorial please and someone help?
