I made a shocking blunder with the fifth attempt which ramped up the panic level considerably. Phew indeed.

Decided there was not much to gain from the remaining two factfinders and went for it. I didn't use the word "lucky" in the opening sentence, but we are all men of the world here, some things go without saying

Had to work through a few "what goes where's" and nothing leapt out at me. Got there in the end though.

A yellow-less 3.

Thought I was getting a 2, but chose the wrong vowel.

That would have annoyed me at one time, but there was no way you could have known. So now, as long as there are no mistakes made, a six as as good as a two, just less lucky

Although I particularly enjoy 2s, I totally agree with you. It's basically either success or failure.

Three factfinders didn't find much, but a minute or so pondering and beard-stroking and a very reasonable guess appeared which proved more reasonable than was first suspected

First three factfinders didn't find much but enough. I methodically worked through potential first letters and bewilderingly keep missing this one. Finally I experienced an "oh yeah, of course" moment only to then lament what had taken so long.

First one back after another cardioversion and it's hot, ridiculously so. My shoulders screamed for a little while on the first few sets but weren't too bad after those. The depth was fine and I could have done more, probably wise that I didn't though. Here we go again. Again.
