I would never have got the green connection without having googled a couple of words. Then it was trial and error as to which of the unknowns were yellow or green. Purple definitely easiest for me.

Some googling to complete the categories - I thought I could see a different category. Pleased to get blue and purple before green and yellow! No default.
