We have a winner! Millie Morgan takes the deal with 7 unnatural points for
her mouldy chocolate, with Paul Keating in hot pursuit with an unatural 6.
The dictionary tied with Paul, as 6 perceptive players guessed that COPIATE
is a labourer or toiler - perhaps I should have edited it to read 'laborer'
to give you less of a clue!

Over to you, Millie.
