Here are the results of your fertile minds - plus one real definition from a genuine dictionary
Vote for TWO definitions, as a public forum message (in reply to this one), before the deadline 9:00 am BST Monday 17th - that’s
4;00 am on the Easter seaboard and other times as appropriate


New players are welcome, even if you didn't enter a definition this round. Don't look in a dictionary. Full rules, if you're
curious, are in the files area of the Google Dixionary group files section or the sticky messages at tapcis.com in The Parlor

I think you forgot to include the real one. If it's in there, it's
somewhere between 1 and 15. Make them my votes.
