  1. Brilliant, now will you please tell the Independent/Guardian/other papers that I’d have expected better from which the appropriate pronoun is?

  2. This one is even better from the Metro:
    “The new champ, who said his transsexualism” yet she identifies as female so why use a ‘his’ unless to put back in our places again.

  6. How many points for the word “F.R.E.A.K”, if the “K” were on a triple word score square?

  7. 44, by my calculations, if you hit the local double word score too.

    Why do you ask?

    We could do with a report feature, though I’m sure Leo thinks a ban is worth it to call a random person a freak on an LGBT site.

    The leo above isn’t me. He’s a new leo. Someone’s obviously posting vile things in my name because they have mental health issues.

    My mum has a glass rosebowl exactly like the one she won!
