I found a two or three duplicates, so had to delete some of the previous 106. Slowed down a bit now, 109.

I'm at 113 and I've gone cross-eyed. Have no access to dictionary either. Think all the words are English, I weeded out the obvious french ones that crept in! (and the duplicates)

There are four of you who have found more than 100 words - very impressive totals as I only found 73
So please would
Sandra
,
Catlar
,

and
Ploshkin
each send me a PM containing your lists of words for checking.
I do hope you have all really been much better than me and that there aren't too many foreign/duplicated or otherwise disallowed words in your lists.
