Sharron Report 25 Apr 2018 12:23

I play quite a lot of Scrabble on Facebook and am not very competitive or, indeed, good at it. There is one Indian man I have been playing for years. I don't think English is even his first language but he regularly beats me by one or even two hundred.

When I first played, my very first opponent was a wierdo who was quite chatty on the side panel and then started asking me some funny questions but I have had no further problems and we even apologize to each other when we lay a rude one!

Yesterday I was paying while I watched the news and, putting the cursor in the wrong place, got myself a new opponent and he is red hot at it.

Off course, you like to look good on the first game and I laid a seventy.Did it really have to be 'fellated'? Did the next two best words that came out have to be 'limp' and 'groin'?

Many words are capable of amusing or offending some esoteric Scrabble contestants.

Sharron has to find me first...Australia is a large country, and WA covers a third of it :-P :-D :-D :-D

Caroline

Caroline Report 27 Apr 2018 02:27

I've got a feeling that if Sharron wants to find you she will hunt you down :-D

What a way to go, smothered in shepherd's pie and pickled onions, although come to think of it, Sharron would hardly waste those on me :-D :-D :-D

Sharron

Sharron Report 27 Apr 2018 11:39

You might be smothered in shepherds pie but that is not where the pickled onions would be and, because I would not want to waste them, they would still be safely within their jar.
