[Dixonary] Round 2902 GEBUR Results
We've ended up with a tie for the dealership of the next round - both Tim
Bourne and Dave Cunningham got 5 natural points. Dave is ahead in the rolling scores so he takes the deal, leaving Tim B as the real winner. Judy Madnick and Hugo Kornelis both guessed correctly that a GEBUR is - or rather was historically - a tenant farmer. Over to you, Dave. -- Tim L *** GEBUR *** 1. A hod; a scuttle.
