This was an interesting round - two people guessed it was fear of rabies and Mike was a DQ - the fear of dealing next leaves me with
a decision for Tim Lodge and Bill Hirst and Paul Keating each had 4 natural points each:
Depending on the rolling scores...which I haven't received for round 1876 so - if I did my maths correctly, as Tim dealt last (1876)
and Paul didn't vote then means that both Tim and Paul are on 16 (previous 4 plus this) - which means ...that as Tim is ahead
overall the he gets next deal...Right? And Paul and Bill are thus the real winners

Over to you Tim - another end-on-end deal

I hope Chris, Jim, Dan and Paul realize there are no such things as
brain-eating zombies. You guys have been watching way too many bad
horror films.

-Bill

p.s. There's no egg-laying Easter bunny either, so there. However, I
do not question the existence of Santa Claus, especially in late
December. We need some unexplainable delights to make life worth
living.

<LOL> Good point. Although I would think that there might be somewhere an
irrational fear of something that doesn't necessarily exist. The phobia in
question could be an extension of ambulothanatophobia.

Shouldn't that be vorocerebroambulothanatophobia?
