[Fictionary] At long last: NARD ... 11 times

[Hutch]

Let's see. Linda: no, you didn't miss anything. J-J: not even by Armistice
Day. Pierre: yes, it got a little lost.

My apologies for the delay. Embarrassingly, I managed to lose my original
list and had to spend a little time finding the definition of my word again
*blush*

Eleven definitions for your enjoyment. Standard 2-point and 1-point voting,
please.

unnoticeable presence.

BB,
Hutch
