Apologies to everyone for the delay in posting these results but 12 hours ago I wasn't sure if I had a workable machine - all's well
that ends

This was one of those cases where the 'real' winner was Webster for I achieved, if that is the word, a D6. Tony achieved that many
votes for his low chest of drawers - opposite of a tallboy I suppose - and also guessed the correct definition; so an unatural 8
makes him the next dealer. Roberta, Hugo and Russ achieved 4's

Take it away Tony
