What I saw in my bathroom yesterday was a fly! Nothing to do with sinks and obviously a more apparent connection.

@Aroundtheworldin80moves 917 is a synonym

Relatively painless. Found 917 relatively early then failed to get any higher until I stumbled on The Word. Am off to look at the nearest words now.

Those were the only 900s I had before getting the answer.

When I saw your clue yesterday I tried tap, then I thought - don’t be silly it will be something non bathroom related that she happened to see in the bathroom!

But later on in the day I was wondering if it was sink you put after all! Fly would have been very useful to me at that point.

@Lotsofpots

100 guesses in and no greens.

I’m heading towards this myself! My highest (cold) word is 29.31 with no obvious connection words. Waaaah.

@ChuckBerrysBoots I got my first green at guess 192 today, and got the word a good 30 or so later.

This one was hard! I came in this thread to see how others were doing and read a clue which led me to the answer. Now I feel a bit like I cheated, although looking at the list of nearest words I think I'd have needed at least another 100+ guesses to get there on my own.
