Scrabble Day

NumberWorks'nWords NorthWest

Each year on National Scrabble Day, April 13th recognises a game played around the world. Originally named Lexiko and then Criss-Cross Words, Alfred Mosher Butts eventually settled on the name Scrabble. The amateur artist and unemployed architect developed the word game in the midst of the depression. Still, it wasnโ€™t until 1948, a final name change and a trademark that Butts finally began to produce the game.

Need a Pet Friendly Room to Rent

Mornay from Ranui

Hi Everyone. Iโ€™m in need of a pet friendly room to rent. So if anyone wants a flatmate, please contact me. Iโ€™m a 52 year-old single male, non-smoker. Iโ€™m very neat & tidy. Iโ€™m also an ex Police Officer from South Africa.
I do have two pets, a young male cat & a Cockatiel bird in a cage that Iโ€™d like to bring with me to the new place.
Please contact me if you have a room available.
