I got the connection for the purples once they were the only ones left, but I have only heard of two of them, so wouldn't have picked them out.

That looked really daunting on first glance but I quite enjoyed it.

Pffft. Too many things I'd assigned the wrong meaning to & one of the greens I just didn't know.

I was sure green was a different connection for ages until it dawned on me. PBD but I see it now.

WhatICallMyUsername · 23/12/2024 23:48

Late for me today. Might even follow up with an early one in 13 minutes 🤣
