PBD. Well done to those who got purple, I would never have guessed the connection.

Googled one word but I’d only heard if one of the yellows.

Needed hints for that, and once I’d got help with purples, the correct yellows fell into place. I hadn’t heard of one of them .

Went in too quickly but was OK after that. A lot of crossover words I thought.

WhatICallMyUsername · 13/05/2026 07:59

Wow I made hard work of that, straight in with the red herring! I only knew two yellow and got fixated on those instead of trying purple 😂
