No default but I didn't spot the blue connection until that was all that was left.

🟪🟪🟪🟪 I got the category for green but couldn’t see how one of them fit in. Very annoying!

Haven’t heard of one of the blues in that context, PBD.

Another one lucky guess with blue and purple was obvious when it was all that was left.

Very hard! Had to read the Connections Companion for about ten minutes to find a clue today. Did not read the companion yesterday which is why I lost my not particularly long streak.

so annoyed with myself. I was being cocky and had worked out green, yellow and blue before selecting anything (so I thought) so went for what was left over to get purple first. But I was wrong. Then made a stupid mistake with fat fingers on yellow. Hubris I guess.

LifeOfBriony · 26/02/2026 21:34

It seems I forgot to play yesterday but I’ve lost my (very short) streak today anyway.

Got green almost straight away. Knew the blue category but I’m not familiar with one of the terms.
