Mayer 2 16
Dan Wddis had email problems -- so 1 dealer point for Dan as well. (He would like to be marked as DQ -- though I am unsure why)
The def several claimed it was as a DQ was "[Welsh] a valley" ... but the actual def is a lot weirder! I mean, who ever heard of one word having an equally strange one word definition?
