Never heard of one of the blue group in that context

I could see 3 of blue so was focussing on that rather than purple then suddenly saw purple. Haven't heard of one of blue in that context

I thought I was being SOO clever with that first group! Guaranteed Purple first, I thought!

Peridot1 · 13/10/2024 08:05

I thought I had blue first too but also wasn’t sure of one of my guesses. Which was just as well as it would have been wrong! The rest were pretty easy eventually.

Couldn't see blue or purple at all.

BiscuitlyBoyle · 13/10/2024 08:40

That was frustrating to start with. Jumped straight in for both red herrings.

Loved green. PBD but obvious once revealed.

Went straight for the red herring, after that it was plain sailing. No defaults.

Enjoyed that one! Sunday morning puzzle fun with the 15yo probably contributed to that though.

One of those blues is a bloody reach! When I stopped trying to solve that it was straightforward. Quite liked Purple, and Green brought back memories.

I could see blue but wasn't getting the correct 4.
