Well, well, well ... we have a three-way tie
with Johnny Barrs, Chris Carson and Keith Hale all on 4 points each.
But looking at the rolling scores, it's clear to see that I am about to hand
the deal straight back to Mr Barrs DQ.
Dan, Scott and Tony Abell correctly chose No.12, the takeaway, as the
correct dictionary definition.
Congratulations from me
.... it's all yours JohnnyB
Best wishes to all
Millie
