Took me ages and when it finally loaded the screen was tiny so had to turn phone sideways.

Because it's American, owned by NYTimes

Yep. Almost missed it the other week because they drop the E from blonde.

You'd think after being over here for 40 odd years I'd get used to it, but I have decided that it is one of my life's missions to correct their egregious spelling (except when it come to getting Wordle right).

Why were you trying to play Honour and Colour in a 5 letter game?

I’m not playing 6 letter words, but as I’m English I’m not automatically thinking that words such as those are 5 letters

Isn’t it an abbreviation?
Abbreviations aren’t allowed

Acronym. But they're probably not allowed either.

The site also links to Connections - as in Only Connect wall round - and I'm often stumped by "Americanisms" on that game.

Bigger issues in the world I know.........just saying.

I got it in 4 but struggled a bit. I don’t like on the first go when you get one in exactly the right place but nothing else. I find when that happens I’ll draw another blank on the second one.

As well as the NY Times version of Wordle, I also play Wordling! (4, 5, 6 and 7 letter versions). And, for something a bit different, there is Worldle which invites you to guess country names from their shapes. What an exciting life I lead!

Saw that one last week. My starting word is always aisle. Not occurred yet.

Louse followed by dairy is my strategy. All the vowels plus y and a few handy consonants. It seems to work OK. The other first timers were before using louse/dairy, one was appal and I can't remember the other.
