bluebottle Posted April 5, 2013 Share Posted April 5, 2013 That's cheating, having two goes. So I take your first. Valsgarth. Home to the UKs Northernmost Brewery. I am offended. Cheating? In a game with no rules? I was playing my version, the aim being to use the full alphabet. This demands careful forethought and ruthless speed to forestall any attempt to use my carefully chosen last letter before I can complete my play. This combines the skills of Scrabble and Snap!
