PBD. What a feeble connection.

Very nearly went with the red herring first.
I think purple is a bit of a dodgy connection.

I’m off on holiday today and was hoping this would occupy me at the airport for longer than it did.

I don't think that was as clever as they thought it was.

Purple by default - and scraping the barrel a bit I think.

Have a lovely time @WonderfulSmith 😊

I knew what the connection was for purple but I couldn’t figure out WHAT it was IYSWIM 😂

I could see what purple should be but couldn’t work it out as I couldn’t see the pattern.

I’m on holiday in Kos. It’s pouring with rain and overnight thunderstorms. Back home It’s 29°….

Peridot1 · 23/05/2026 09:23

Bummer @WonderfulSmith. Hope it gets better.

Kicking myself about purple too. Couldn’t quite see the connection.

I'm sorry, @WonderfulSmith . If it's any consolation, it's 30 degrees in Germany and I would LOVE a thunderstorm.

No default, and have a purple fan in the house, so familiar 😄
