Default [Dixonary] Round 2941 results

Our winner today is Keith Hale, with a natural 5 points for his unmarried
mother. Second place goes to Efrem & Judy, with unnatural 4s. The real def,
the loose dress, didn't fare so well, with D5. I found this word in a novel
called Slammerkin, by Emma Donoghue.

Take it away Keith.
