Look at the score-board!

He wiped the table with us in the first game - as he usually does in Scrabble. He had managed to acquire our box from when we played on the farm in the late '50s. What a rotter he is!

In the second game, he played 'lazed' which I followed with 'gauge' turning it into 'glazed. Then I added 's' to 'Jew' to take it over the Triple Word Score adding 42 to my tally. With one tile left, I was 8 behind, but added 't' to the juncture of 'a' and 'rap' making 'rapt' and 'at'. We were both on 170, but he had to subtract one for the tile he was left holding.

Victory by a country mile!
