PW was a tricky little blighter today.

1A I knew, also had the wrong word for 7A until I went to the D clues. Agree they have been a bit sparing with the letters for the PW, only giving us 3…

Oh dear....

Hard today. Can’t get plusword. Where are all the vowels???

DadDadDad · 22/12/2022 08:54

3:34 for me - I agree it was tough. With the PW, once you realise there is a very limited set of letters that it can start with, it gets easier to narrow it down.

BlandSoup · 22/12/2022 08:58

That’s exactly the problem! The very limited set of letters means I can’t think of a single words with those letters.

Took me ages to work out what it started with

Can someone PM me the plusword please?

DadDadDad · 22/12/2022 09:13

@BlandSoup - I've PMed some pointers. If that doesn't help, I'll tell you the PW!

BlandSoup · 22/12/2022 09:32

Took far too long to see the PW!

oviraptor21 · 22/12/2022 10:14

Had a typo on the green letter 🤨 or I would have been quicker. 1a was a good one for me!

Fine n dandy. What’s up with 1D @Drywhitefruitycidergin? Does it have an offensive origin?

oviraptor21 · 23/12/2022 07:42

⏱️ I just completed PlusWord in 01:26 www.telegraph.co.uk/plusword/

Got the pw before the grid was finished.

DadDadDad · 23/12/2022 07:58

1:47 for me.

Drywhitefruitycidergin · 23/12/2022 08:05

@JoyDivisionOvenGlovesx not sure of the real etymology but it's not a word I knew in this context. Where I was growing up it was definitely an offensive term that people called someone. You f s* sort of thing. I would have said it was interchangeable with the awful old term used for people with cerebal palsy.

Hepzibar · 23/12/2022 08:07

Nice one today. PW probably easiest we've had for a while

UmbilicusProfundus · 23/12/2022 08:29

1:51 for me today.

I also thought 1D was an offensive / racist word, which delayed me. But googling it, doesn’t actually seem to be.

I would have been a lot quicker if I just started with the horizontal clues.
