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!

No default, fairly straightforward today, I thought.

Same as you @ThePoshUns - it started so well!
I thought yellow was something completely different.

Purple by default - but I’m cross I didn’t spend more time thinking about it as it wasn’t that difficult.

Hard - got green, then had to resort to the Connections companion. Purple could have gone horribly wrong as one guess was a complete guess.

Got the gist of blue but one word made little sense to me.
Well done @thinky It's a good feeling when that happens!

Lots of us getting the same order today!
I agree one of the blues wasn't a usage I'm familiar with, but I guessed based on the other three.
