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!

Saved when I spotted purple. Never heard of one of the greens and blue is weak.

I had the right idea of what the connections were for blue, yellow and green but couldn’t get the correct 4 words in. No idea for purple.

Quite chuffed at getting all the rows, but today it's a 1/ 5 difficulty so that burst my fragile bubble somewhat. No default, anyway 🙂

Geez, did they post a children's puzzle today? So obvious as to not even be fun. I like to at least have a moment of head scratching!
