Default [Dixonary] rnd 2783 MUNTIN Result

Closing a little earlyas everyone who submitted has voted

The word means (in UK English) a vertical bar between panels in a door
or window (as #12) which earned me a D4. I discovered during the game
that in US English it is a "glazing bar" which can be horizontal or
vertical or diagonal or decorative but always in glass and often on
glass roof. So if I confused anyone by specifying vertical and between
panels in a door then put it down to the richness and diversity of our
language

Keith Hale scored 7* and is our next dealer The real winners are then
Mike S, Shani N and Tim L with natural 4s followed by Efrem M, Dan W
with unnatural 4s
