I didnt mean to press hint but it’s just as well as I thought the spangram was spelt differently so I wouldn’t have found it

Made a lot more sense once I'd got the spanogram!

I was lucky to pick a word at random that made it easy to guess the theme. Got very stuck at the end assuming there was just one word left in the top right hand corner - turned out to be 2 words!

I got so many unrelated longer words I struggled to see the link - especially as I found the Spangram but didn’t make it plural so it didn’t count and I veered off in another direction!

Stowickthevast · 21/03/2024 10:06

I did the same with the plural but then thought it had to be it.

I'm still trying to get the last two! I've got the spanpgram but cannot work out the two words in the bottom left corner!
