After "Shadowgate", Spot told me to keep my big fat mouth firmly shut ! :shock:

The only clue I'll give is that some folk are clearly very rusty :lol: :lol: :lol:

SCORING

With a Grid of 117 squares, anyone who gets a Direct Hit deserves massive praise. Their Bingo Dobber is clearly sharpened and will score 5 Points

A Near Miss, the squares immediately adjacent to the Key Square, will score 3 Points

An Almost Near Miss, the squares immediately adjacent to the 3 point squares, will score 1 Point

Over the Course of the Competition, things will begin to level out so there is no need for despondency at Round 1

Round 2 will start as soon as Round 1 has been concluded

I should have got one of my dogs to stand on the photos and gone with the square his paw landed on. I'd probably stand more chance that way :lol: :lol:

Aah - those in fact were worn by my enemies, Ralphie.

I wore a turban, or in winter a claret-and-blue bob hat.

That's Orangebeard, an old crewmate of mine.

He was always in trouble for the untidiness of his headgear.
