A few days ago I started typing 'what am I missing...' ... oh yeah, that.

I posted, then I got a green. I am on a bus so I just entered words I could pick out from conversations I could here. Then I saw sparetimes post boom!

Urgh, that was a slog through the greens.

thanks for the helpful clues - was stuck at 960 for ages

Thanks @Jane!

Can you believe how long we've been doing this? The first thread seems like a lifetime ago.

I'm struggling a bit today. I have an idea in my head of the theme but can't seem to get onto the right tangent.

Finally got my average under 100 guesses. I’ve been aiming at that for a while but I kept having stinkers!

Take a look at my suggestion to Edwin upthread, see if that helps.

@SouperNoodle - @Idroppedthescrewinthetuna's post will help you out

Well that was a bit slower than the last couple of days 😆. I took one hint after it took me 30 guesses to get from 960 to 963 and I ran out of ideas another 10 guesses after that.

Thanks guys! I got it thanks to your hints 😊

That was a good one.

Yesterday's amused me. I started with cat as usual, which was fairly high, so went through tabby, moggy and the like. Went via witch and psychic to priest and minister, then hit curate as my first green. Took a wee while to get to the final word from all that meandering!

That was weird! 777 was my highest green - no idea what made me jump from that to the word!

@ThatsRoughBuddy same! Though I did have a few guesses between 777 and the answer, that was my first green.

Another one whose first green was 777!

I didn't have 777. I did have 776, but thats a lot less useful.

I got 993 quite early on so got lucky today.
