What even is that? DH works in the field and even he was baffled until I had most of the first paragraph.

Hard one.

Got to 92, had second word, and had tried the 4 things I thought might work for first word but no joy. Had to google and it still took me up to 111 even after googling.

I should record that I failed yesterday- unsurprisingly when I looked up the answer!

InMySpareTime · 10/10/2022 17:29

What does the 23rd word mean (in the middle of the first set of brackets)? I've never seen that word, and I've read a lot of words in my time!

I was a bit surprised by the marked dislike of yesterday's topic, I didn't think it was obscure - perhaps because DD had wanted to take the (now defunct, I believe) 'Systems and Control' A level which her school usually allowed but that year there weren't enough to run it.

I'd never come across that one either. If you look it up, it has a Wikipedia entry itself. I guess we'd better not discuss it on this thread till after 5pm tomorrow!

Thanks, not sure I would have got that!

The 23rd word is to do with pairing (I don't really think that gives anything away!)

dapsnotplimsolls · 10/10/2022 18:48

Yesterday's was infuriating - I googled types of engineering and control didn't come up!
