Good Game
By
My apologies. I am so busy at the moment that I am barely finding time to read the newspaper and peek at my favorite blogs. I leave you with this Scrabble board from the other night. Good game, Mr Levin. What was the score again?
PS Don’t you hate it when blogs only show you a summary in their RSS feed? This blog is now set to full text.

Good game indeed; I love ‘airiest’. But what a board! It looks fabulous.

Paul, my memory is a bit fuzzy from that night, but the score was exactly 436 me, 360 you.
Two cool moves worth describing:
You placed TIDY down the top left Triple Word Score, also creating HI, GOD, and AGONY.
I placed the T-PAZ across WOOD and over DIE to create TOPAZ, PI, and AE.
Good game!

AA is a word?
AL is a word?
LO is a word?
PA is a word?
EF is a word?
Is this English scrabble?

They are all acceptable Scrabble words, Simon. Sheesh!

So these are all acceptable…

I would try and remember them all, but I’m not a complete fruitcake so I think I’ll just watch the telly instead.

Is this how people speak in Leeds?

If you were even fruitier you would know the latest Official Scrabble Players Dictionary includes 4 (I think) new two-letter words:
FE, OI, QI, and ZA.
