We've just done a final push and the kitchen is completely clear for the
builders to start tomorrow. Moral of the story: if you're having a new
kitchen, don't wait until you're 75 to do it - total exhaustion has set in!

Here are 11 defs of the word DULEDGE. only one of which came from my
dictionary. Please vote for your two favourites by public reply to this
message, before the deadline of:

10:00 UTC/GMT on Tuesday 20th June

*** DULEDGE ***


1. [Obs.] to wonder at.

2. in cooking, the measure of sweetness.

3. _Nautical_ Pig iron used as permanent ballast.

4. [Obs.] the boundary between two parishes in the area of the
old Danelaw.

5. a dowel or peg for connecting the felloes of the wheels of
gun-carriages.

6. a ledge designed to catch dew or condensation, usually
leading to a gutter.

7. the practice of having one or more witnesses to the signing
of a legal document.

8. any fee associated with any writ of attachment where the fee
is payable to a third party.

9. [Obs.] The payment of a penny yearly by a tenant to the lord
of the manor for each cow grazed on the lord's land.

10. the ratio of the depth of water in a ship's bilge to the depth
of the bilge itself. Also, the depth of water at which the bilge pump
generally kicks in.

11. an Anglo-Saxon legal system in which units or tithings
composed of ten households were formed, in each of which members were held
responsible for one another's conduct.

9 because cows. And 10 because I'm about to get on a ship. But I hope I never see the bilge.

Tim,

I don't see my price-of-grain definition there, though I recall your confirming it in the progress report, nor do I see anything close enough that it might have been part of a combined definition.

Just FYI, since losing one or more is totally understandable under the circumstances -

Efrem

P.S. You gave me about three weeks to start on our kitchen. I don't think I will, though.

Tim,

I'm not sure that's deserved, since I should have noticed that my name wasn't in the progress report.

(Hope this gets through. If it doesn't, I'll see if I can send it a different way.)
