Through the winter the evening sometimes gets long, so Jan and I will play games. She enjoys Scrabble and the challenge to make decent words. I enjoy reducing the bone pile as quickly as possible and offer the following samples to explain why this game is not high on my list.
I’m supposed to start with this??
And this???
No progress.
Just give it up

Sometimes, for fun, I send an email to a friend in a foreign language. It’s not actually a foreign language, but when I type I move my fingers over one spot on the QWERTYUIOP keyboard. Then they get to spend time deciphering it. Now THAT’S what old men do on long winter evenings. 🙂
Miles, good to hear from you! I notice a new blog address and will check it out. Perhaps I should try your ‘code sending’ on someone and see what happens!
You should try online Scrabble. They let you use all sorts of illegal words.
Would they let you start with nine tiles???
Jan wants to know where that website is!! She says the one she uses is too strict!
I play a couple of friends on the one that comes with Facebook but whether it is available over the Atlantic, I don’t know.
