Hi, on the Wordle thread a few folk said they do Connections so thought I'd start a thread.

And I did manage to get a perfect score today so it was a good day to start....

They don't have a fish aisle in US supermarkets?

@WhatICallMyUsername this game bugs me everyday but I still come back for more!

Fish are usually on a counter in Ireland so I didn't fall for it. Do they have counters in the US?!

Had to google XO but that told me hugs and kisses so went the wrong direction.

I had the same result googling xo, although I only lost one with that. Really should have got the yellows.

I should have got yellows as well @ShinyAppleDreamingOfTheSea 🫣

XO is an album title (and I knew hugs and kisses) but that didn't help.

A few red herrings today, so I'm pleased with this.
