6 Comments:
Sectione (Tony)
for me, brevity is bliss.
Simple idea, but mudgi (Louise) works for me, as well. Perhaps needed to include "4x4" to rate higher points.
At a personal level:
anything that demeans 'beetroot'
(slimy, staining, smelly curse on Creation as it is) will earn points
Safijow, according to Pere.
(it seems entirely inappropriate to
include a definition whilst voting on others..
so, frotet will remain a mystery...for now. )
In general I found Pere's to be very creative. What that man knows!
Comeade: I have the perfect definition but this is a family show!
Okay pOST CIBOS is part of the British Pharmacopoeia that deals with pharmacology.I was being creative however when we say Grace before meals that is
ac-ante cibos_before meals not
Anticibos-against meals as per Jenny craig
Safijow it is, for me.
crolog - The beginning of an early human log.
Actually, hesper almost made me fall off my chair. And I loved the terseness of sectione: the Italian bit.
agamp [I am having too much fun]: An agricultural unit for the measure of energy expended in lifting a glass of beer off a table while keeping the rest of one's body as near perfectly horizontal as possible.
Perhaps needed to include "4x4" to rate higher points.
Damn!
Yes, Tony, Pere's are very creative indeed, but I did also love sectione.
