Horsefeathers is a great word though, isn’t it? I had a geography teacher who used it a lot.

I was avoiding Blue because I thought that was too obvious and a trap - sometimes you shouldn’t overthink!

I did go for the blue first - but wondered if it was a trap as a coincidence with today's Xordle.

Purple seems obvious when you know it.

Does anyone else feel pathetically grateful and pleased when you spot a connection straightaway? Grin
