It's Shani Naylor who has to swear the oath of office as the new dealer -
as well as getting two votes for her twisted straw beehive, she alone
guessed correctly that a KUMPIT is a Philippine trading vessel, leaving her
with an unnatural 4 points.
Tony Abell, Dan Widdis, Tim Bourne, and Hugo Kornelis are the real winners
with 3 points each.
Shani, repeat after me: "I, Shani Naylor ...". Over to you!
