You left out G: On a loom, the eyelets through which the run vertical threads, which will be traversed by the shuttle (mainly because I didn't send it in in time)

so I'll have to vote for the Fitzgeralds' gazebo, which the children affectionately called "Woofits." Thus, B

I still haven't looked up gazebo, but I guess it must be something of a cabin, watch-house or tower. Some decades ago we made a bike trip through Denmark where we found a small lakeside cabin we 'borrowed' for one night which was called Bang's Bo.

Thank you Luke, see? Little luxurious watch-towers for having tea and spying on your neighbours. I knew it! Sooner or later someone was going to produce a link. laugh

I have a fence between myself and one neighbor. There is
absolutely nothing I want to spy on that account.

I know you are. My yard is big enough for a good size
gazebo, but I have a grape arbor, and enjoy sitting under
the vines with my morning coffee. Far more natural.
And inviting.

Ignoring the excellent but overdue purple daefynitions, A and F are leading. But I'd like to hear the thruth about woofs at last. Anyone else still some vote to add?

BEXTER! het is vrijdag !!
