@Jacqui J That s/D killed my streak, not that it was especially long :(

@Melis I put in sarma thinking "I'm going to have to change it to DOLMA, aren't I?"

excise for ABLATE threw me too, as did seethes for SEESRED.

@lucky13 Georges Perec wrote "La Disparation", which is in fact a novel about the disappearance of the letter e, and "Les Revenents", which *only* contains the vowel e -- somehow his translator managed to brilliantly translate the former into "A Void". I don't remember the translators name, but I'm sorry to hear he's passed away. If people are interested in this kind of wordplay (and who isn't?🙂) I highly recommend "Eunoia" by Christian Bok, where each chapter contains only words with a single vowel.

@Nick i got it from crosses and then remembered Oni Baba!
