By my reckoning I had three options and two guesses, tactical provided the solution.


Identical day to mine

Three yesterday and a five today which was a bit squirrelly until the fourth guess settled the nerves.

I was stuck for a while trying to make sense of four yellows.

An arduous and uncomfortable four.

A slow, tricky and mildly worrying five

There was more perplexment after the first three than you could shake a stick at. I didn't have much and what I did have I considered "rum". After much humming and hawing I went for a certain to be wrong fourth which would either have doomed me to defeat or helped considerably. Happily it was the latter. No complaints with the actual word though. Relieved.

Again, an almost identical game to mine today. I suspect your 'certain to be wrong' fourth was the same word as my 'certain to be wrong' fourth, which gave a dead cert fifth.

No training yesterday as I had a boiler issue that needed sorting. Plumber arrived late afternoon and put a temporary fix in, a permanent fix will be done later this month when the annual service is done, sooner if the problems persist. So far all is well.
