The winner is the last player to have any cards. The faster you play the better. We play a faster modified version of card scrabble too where only one word each is table in front of you and can be trumped or stolen by adding letters but only if they change the root word ie no s, ed, ing etc. <br />Natalie-It WAS a long day but you are right nothing gelato and flakey panetone wouldnt fix and I would go back to Venice in a flash! <br />Actually every one of our flights was delayed in some way but the trains were awesome.Tanyahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/13388362742170805414noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7955237421825935492.post-38311194274833247622010-01-11T07:29:09.841-08:002010-01-11T07:29:09.841-08:00Oh, what a hideously long day...but then...Venice....Oh, what a hideously long day...but then...Venice.
