Laydeez and gennlemen: the moment for which you have all been waiting.
My Dad has finally opened a blog.
You can find him, and his poetry, atย http://johnell74.wordpress.com/.
Enjoy. I’m ‘avin’ a night off. Nothing like dropping aitches for giggles on the eve of a bank holiday. Off to play Scrabble with Phil.
HURRAH for John! And Three More Cheers! I am sooooo glad he has done that. I hope i’m his first subscriber, because I’m headed over there now!
Cheers Paula:-) he’ll appreciate that…
I want to play Scrabble with you! ๐
I don’t follow poetry blogs . . . but I’ll go pay your dad a quick visit to welcome him to the blogosphere.
Cheers Nancy ๐ I’m trailing 151 to Phil’s 193…I didn’t even know vig was a word…
No “vig” in my desk dictionary ~ I found vigil and vigor and vim, but no vig.
I think Scrabble might be using the dictionary that comes in LOTS of complicated volumes!
The Scrabble dictionary is far more expansive ~ so I feel OK not knowing “Scrabble words” that aren’t in my trusty Merriam-Webster.
๐ the scrabble dictionary is scrabbled, if you ask me!
Just left your dad a comment on his poem, Thanksgiving, and enjoyed the rest as well and hope he continues to post.
Will you and Phil be playing Scrabble without the ‘aitches? Could be especially interestin’
Thanks for visiting, Penny ๐ Aitches stay in scrabble I’m afraid…I’m doing dismally. You should see some of the words on the board: it makes me wonder if the Scrabble official dictionary originated on another planet….
And about time, too!
๐ Just what I said…
‘ave fun ๐
Hooray! Popping on over there now.
Cheers Tilly ๐
Hurray for your Dad – I think he’ll be glad he took the plunge!
I like Scrabble, though I admit to liking it better in the days before Scrabble Dictionary… I could win more often then. ๐
The weirdest words get through, don’t they, Ruth? I’d love literary artistry to be at the centre of the game but a fear one just has to be a wily wordsmith to win.
I’m playing again tonight. And losing. Curses.
