I had a nasty kind of feeling that was coming!

The word for this round is

*************
* *
* BURGAGE *
* *
*************

As usual, no indication of capitalisation or otherwise is implied.

New players are welcome. Don't look in a dictionary. If you know the word, let me know soon, by
email (if too many people know it, we'll pick another word).

Think up a creative, intriguing, funny or genuine looking definition that will entice your fellow
players to vote for it. Send it BY EMAIL (not as a public forum message) to me , before the deadline
which is 18.00 BST on Saturday 26 April. That would be 1700 UTC, 1300 EDT, 1000 PDT, and so on.

Full rules, if you're curious, are at www.dixonary.net.

Best wishes,
Tim Bourne.

A device for measuring the intensity of a person's Scottish speech patterns.

(I once spoke with an Edinburgh bus driver who scored at least 9.5 on the burgage. It was nearly impossible for me to understand him.)
