excessive eating and drinking" earned a natural 8.

Guerri Stevens takes coveted second place with 6 points. Hugo Kornelis

The true definition was 18: "_obs._ foul (_lit._ and _fig._) [Cf OE
_besútod_ defiled, foul]"

My heartfelt thanks to everyone who voted for definition 2 although
Millie probably doesn't feel the same!

Good luck with the deal, Millie!
