Having looked at the list, I'm predicting no one will get clue 999 as it's not a word
Shock

Two good days in a row for me! That's got my average down below 75 for the first time in ages!

Doubleraspberry · 23/09/2022 11:19

I'm very keen to get under 100. Now on 102. But every time I get close, I end up with a 200+ day.

That was horrendous! I took more hints than you could shake a stick at! I just couldn't see a pattern at all and every hint was a dead end 😬
