Oops, that caught me unawares


The Word for this round is

*************
* *
* QWESEYN *
* *
*************

As usual, no indication of capitalisation or otherwise is implied.

New players are welcome. Don't look in a dictionary. If you know the word, let me know soon, by email (if too many people know it,
we'll pick another word).I suspect that because it is one of the few "Q without a U" that I might have to change it

Think up a creative, intriguing, funny or genuine looking definition that will entice your fellow players to vote for it. Send it BY
EMAIL (not as a public forum message) to me, <johnnybarrs (AT) gmail (DOT) com or <john.barrs (AT) ntlworld (DOT) com> before the deadline...

18:00 British Time 09 Apr 2008
which is 21:00 for points east of me like Moscow and Bagdhad
13:00 EastCoast USA
10:00 WestCoast USA
.... or thereabouts


Full rules, if you're curious, are in the files area of the Googlegroups Dixonary site http://tinyurl.com/2tyrox or the sticky
messages at tapcis.com in The Parlor

>> Q without a U

.... but it isn't a Scrabble word so it's not all that likely to be widely
known on that account. The only Scrabble words in QW- are QWERTY/S/IES.
