Word Hunt Diamond - Game 56

[Mi-Amigo]

Welcome to the Word Hunt Diamond - Game 56

The game is open to all members.

Each week, a grid of nine letters in a diamond will be posted.

The aim of the game is to find the target number of words [as in the source used for the game] using only the letters in the grid.

This week`s "diamond" is as follows:

                                                                                     U

                                                                                  R     Q

                                                                              N     A     L

                                                                                   I      H

                                                                                      E

This week`s target is 70 words - using only the letters in the diamond - including the 9-letter word.

The rules:

Each word must contain four letters or more and must include the red letter A.

No proper names are allowed.

Scottish words and American spellings are allowed.

Each letter in the grid can only be used once in each word [for example, AREA is not allowed].

Of course, words do not have to start with the red letter A

Only one word per post.

Please wait until someone else has posted before posting again.

I will endeavour to give regular updates on each page [so as to avoid scrolling back] of the words found and the number of words still to be found.

The Word Hunt Diamond game is open to all members.

I hope the Diamond Dogs of Words [thanks @pgn for the term] - those who have played in previous

Word Hunt Diamond games - including 

  @Cleoriff   @pgn  @BobM   @TallTrees  @Anonymous   @Bambino   @gmarkj  @MI5 

  @jonsie    @madasaf1sh   @LukasB   @TheresaV   @Cairdeas 

any member who has not played before, or any new member will join in and play today`s WHD.

Can you, between you, not only find the 70 words in the list [in the source used for this game], the nine-letter words, and, as in previous games, also find additional words not in the list ?

Good luck everyone and have fun...

Thank you @Cleoriff and welcome back.

I`m pleased you enjoyed the game.

As you said, it was a little weird with just you and @BobM playing for quite some time and then just @TheresaV and @BobM in the race to the end.

But the main thing is everyone enjoyed the game.
