886. You

Thanks for the checklist Drawyer, which you clearly lost no time in getting to work on.

I've noticed that the list, and previous versions of it, contains the word hatch, which uses the letter 'h' twice, and therefore falls foul of the requirement that shorter words in the current circumstances can only use any consonant or vowel once. An extra word therefore needs to be added to replace the invalid one, so I'm submitting a double post, as has been done on previous occasions, to get the numbering sequence back on track:


#887(a)

Gore


#887(b)

Ghastly

888.

Gist

#889

Spume

890.

Moldy

#891

Scared

Great job on the list, Drawyer.
And well spotted (and fixed), DH.

892. Smart

#893

Pitcher

894.
