Apologies for delay -- the Grand National, 2 boat races, the Augusta
Masters etc stole all my attention
Dodi asked why it wasn't an English word, my defense is that it is in
the OED with half-a-dozen citations - the word is Malay and 5 of you
guessed correctly that it was #1 - so a D5 for me
Paul Keating scored an unnatural 6 and is our next dealer 3 points
ahead of anyone else - the real winner s are Keith Hale, Efrem Mallach,
Nancy Shepherdson, Chris Carson, Judy Madnick with 3 points
Over to you Paul
