How many words
Not an original idea but fun never the less.
Challenge...
How many words of three letters or more can you make from the following phrase:
Sherlock Holmes consulting detective
You can only use the letters that appear (obviously) and can only use them the same number of times as they appear in the phrase. Plurals are allowed. How many words can you get?
P.M. Me with your list once you've had a go and I'll post the current leader and number of words found here.
Come on you lot! Don't just sit there looking vacant! Lol
