Backroom Mike E Posted January 30, 2018 Backroom Share Posted January 30, 2018 Inspired by the game of the same name on popular BBC Radio 4 programme 'I'm Sorry, I Haven't A Clue', what are some alternative meanings for words you've thought of? Some of my favourites on the show have been: Dispensation - This pen is from China. Moisturiser - How Yoda asks if you've been crying. Celery - A bit like a cellar.

I assume we're playing Sweet FA 1875 rules? Double points on stations related to football, triple if it occurs on a diagonal. Of course cheating is allowed but oh when not caught, and biting incurs a 6 match ban. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
