In there is one 9-letter word, and at least 25 words of four or more letters, (no Proper nouns though)

Each word must include the RED letter...

How many can you add, without repetition?

Well done poppycock - the 9-letter word is always a good one to get.

You're right of course JLL (I never argue with a woman!) Embarassed

manic is not allowed.

But if you really want to try hard, my list including gamin, is currently at 34!

So there could be another 9 to add.......

Well done everyone, easily hit the target - I was too easygoing there.

In addition to all the above, there is:

gait
gent
geta
mange
tinge
aiming
mintage

(not minting Poppy... too many n's)

and maybe others that only a Scrabble champion would know (or care) about.
