I saw purple at the start but couldn’t quite make it fit.

No defaults, but took me longer than it ought.

A little tricksy today. Many words that could have gone together and a different connection for purple (again!) for me.

I found it rather baffling today and had to look at hints. It's 3 out of 5 difficulty apparently, it's always the two and threes out of five that get me.

Yesterday's puzzle was three out of five and today it's three out of five again, but did not seem difficult to me. Weird!
