Anyone for scrabble?

I play a lot of Scrabble... by myself. I love it. The rules I have are a bit quirky, but they are at least consistent, so you can imagine my dismay at the end of my most recent game to discover that my K was MIA. This prompted an investigation which by my own admission should have been been conducted sooner, an E here..an A there ... I just didn't notice. I carefully laid out and counted all the tiles and was shocked at my findings. 7 LETTERS... GONE! I mean how many points have I missed out on and for how long? My recent lower scorings all made sense now. I began an immediate mission delving into the depths of THE chair only to find a hair tie, a dime, a pistacio shell and a sugar daddy (the candy, not a rich man that buys you things). I will get a new set although I am not afraid of some cardboard imitations in the meantime.
