Shenanigans- that's two shows in a row Jeremy has used the word. I like Shenanigans... I wonder if he's trying to slip it into every show.... Smile

Shenanigans - was that an old fashioned comment on Ed Milliband or what goes on in the woods? Laughing

Well it's worth 18 in straight letter value
or 143 with a double word, a tripple and a used all tiles bonus. Smile I think

Mullarkey though, I think, is something that you have to do. i.e. “ I don’t want to go though all that Mullarkey”

Where as Shenanigans, I think, is something other people do. i.e. "Oh there was some real shenanigans going on over there last night”

So they could be the same thing, just that one is subjective and the other objective.
