Agh! This is one of the go to words when establishing what part of the alphabet the word is in. Went for another word which ruined it for me

@SpecialSpaghettini yesterday's word was balloon

I have kept a record the words and my scores this year. Didn't do 11 days End April - Early May as on holiday. My stats would be rubbish if I do this on a mobile.
