| I knew it was an American spelling today, it's in one of my areas of interest (which I did not know), and it STILL took me six, including a known-wrong four-consonant word fourth to look for clues. | |||

| I suspect it's just a symptom of being "coached" by somebody without a clue. Possibly themself, of course. Whatever happened to "your opener should be something you can reliably triple in training" as a guideline for novice competitors? | |||

I hope he and Joe Bullock are lifting a glass together. Last time I saw him was Joe's funeral  . | |||

| At the very first contest I attended, having never previously met any of the NWPL or Adlington regulars: - Pete smuggled a mobile 'phone into a prison - Turner sank a squat to the bottom, forgot what to do next, and rolled over on to his back frozen into position (bar and all) - Bryn walked a squat out and stood there shaking for thirty seconds until the side ref beckoned him back in, the centre ref having fallen asleep. It's really a surprise I ever got involved. YXXXY XYXXX GGGGG lucky boy | |||

| I don't believe I'm familiar with "something for your bottom drawer", though I might well figure it out in context. | |||

| T Fatpete said:A rather swift three XXXXX XYXGG Very straightforward. Not sure if this counts as a "rum" word. I'll get back to you on that. I shall await Bod's opinion with interest, he and I are generally kindred spirits in these matters and I am properly undecided Took me four, and considerable puzzlement at that. Macca is exactly right, it is the correct spelling for the term when applied to males. | |||

| XYXYX YXXXY GYGXY GGGGG After the third, there really wasn't much left in the way of possibilities. Andrea and I trained again today. I even squatted, with a bar, and even some (small) plates. | |||

Fatpete said: That's good to hear I hope she enjoyed herself. It's £2 Great, thanks . We both really did, actually. She's never done any sort of strength work before, but it's going to really suit her much better than the typical cardio stuff that tends to get pushed at women.Wayne, our prices are terrific, because it is a community club with no salaries and not much in the way of costs. IIRC the unlimited-access price is £15/mo, or a bit extra for your own key for trustees. | |||

| I feel marginally better after grumping that this is a significantly less common spelling in English. | |||
