Here we have a respectable 14 defs of the word FURGON, only one of which
came from my dictionary, the remainder being the product of your fevered
imaginations. Please vote for your two favourites by public reply to this
message before the deadline of:

20:00 UTC/GMT on Monday 29th May, which is
21:00 BST for the dealer
22:00 CET
4:00 PM EDT
1:00 PM PDT
06:00 AEST on Tuesday 30th in Melbourne
08:00 NZST on Tuesday 30th in New Zealand

As usual new players are welcome to join the game. Just don't look up the
word in a dictionary until after you've voted.
