Hopefully we will find each other? I didn’t notice the old thread filling up.
Happy Christmas to you all and thanks for your company through the year!

Merry Christmas all. And thanks for the new thread @ThePoshUns.

I was scrolling in the night and I think I spotted another new Connections thread but can’t see it now. I’ll have a look for it and link to this one.

PBD. And don’t get it.

whateveryousay · 25/12/2025 12:13

Please can someone explain the PBD where I’m new? I did scan previous threads to see if I could catch on, but I can’t figure it, sorry!

Merluzzo · 25/12/2025 12:45

Welcome @whateveryousay. PBD means purple by default, i.e. I’d never have got the connection but as they were the only clues left, I solved it by default. Could be other colours BBD, GBD etc.

Thank you for a Connections thread!

I confess I only got purple because I googled the meaning of one of the words and found that someone had posted an explanation. Very hard today.

Thanks for the link to new thread.. just place marking

thinky · 26/12/2025 00:24

Couldn't resist doing the new connections as it turned midnight. I found all the clues very American today. That makes it pretty hard as I know very little about America really. But the purple one was obvious after a bit of thinking.
