How can you be both abusive and have a heart of gold?

Never served in the military LCP?

He could - would hurl abuse at you but would then always be there to help when needed.

Thought it was jaffa so it beat me today. Went onto do quordle after that and only got 3 out of the 4 words. Bad Day but there's always tomorrow.

Taffy. Isn’t that racial profiling?
A gentleman from Cardiff, that flanks the river Taff.

He was the kind of person who'd take his own time to visit Burnley Boy's Club to chat with the lads and then have a face like a fiddle.

Brilliant player and those of us of a certain age lifelong memories: legend.

Tomorrow has become today and the first two words I always use gave me all five letters. Back winning again after yesterday's setback. Wonderful

Not been on here for days - and saw this... I thought "Really?" And went to look...

I did, but I can understand the question.
In the end it was a matter of elimination of other letters, rather than seeing the word.

Eloise Laws · Post by **Eloise Laws** » Sun Jul 06, 2025 4:19 pm

Me, but i guessed, I admit I didn’t know the word!!

Leisure · Post by **Leisure** » Sun Jul 06, 2025 4:22 pm

Same here. I'd to Google it after to find out it's meaning!

ClaretTony · Post by **ClaretTony** » Sun Jul 06, 2025 4:29 pm

I got lucky today with my first two guesses but likewise I didn’t know the word

beddie · Post by **beddie** » Sun Jul 06, 2025 5:22 pm

Can you tell us the word or will it spoil it for others. I was just interested after comments made about not knowing it.

LeadBelly · Post by **LeadBelly** » Sun Jul 06, 2025 5:32 pm

I got it in 4, knew the word although more familiar with it as a singular.

lakedistrictclaret · Post by **lakedistrictclaret** » Sun Jul 06, 2025 5:40 pm

I got it in three.
I knew the word, the fact that I did Latin at school helped.

As today is another day, yesterdays word was ATRIA

tarkys_ears · Post by **tarkys_ears** » Mon Jul 07, 2025 8:24 am

I didn't get todays due to it having 2 of the same letter in it... only one popped up when I'd entered it (the last letter).

Shouldn't both of them show up? Should I be expected to guess the same letter twice even though it'd already hit the first time?

No, both don't show up. I guess if you put the letter in twice when guessing the word then it should show up twice.

ClaretTony · Post by **ClaretTony** » Mon Jul 07, 2025 11:40 am

I always start with STARE because those are the five letters most likely to be in a word

Silkyskills1 · Post by **Silkyskills1** » Mon Jul 07, 2025 11:48 am

My opening word is AISLE and got today's in 3 attempts. That Basil Fawlty feeling of 'I'm winning, for once I'm in front' overcame me.

Colburn_Claret · Post by **Colburn_Claret** » Mon Jul 07, 2025 12:35 pm

Curious as to people's current streak, and their max streak.

I'm currently 53, and my max is 261.

Still gutted that I blew my max at 3.30 in the morning after a **** up on holiday in Turkey.

My current is 140 which is also my maximum. I forgot to do it 141 days ago.

Yes, it was only a few weeks ago. I don’t suppose they’ll use it again, but I’m still going to open with STARE.

Silkyskills1 · Post by **Silkyskills1** » Mon Jul 07, 2025 1:42 pm

My opening word AISLE was the word to be found about 3 or 4 months ago so not expecting it again.

STARE has been my opening word ever since I started playing.

I'm a relatively new recruit to this game (played 547) and I use SHARE, on the basis of
2 common vowels
3 fairly common consonants.
I include H there because (it seems to me without researching) a lot of 5 letter words start TH, SH, CH (or even WH) and quite a few end in the same letters or even GH.

I also got it in one once although I think when STARE cropped up I may've gone for SPARE before getting the answer.

Good fun for a few minutes each morning with a mug of tea after breakfast anyway.

Right. Thanks for the info.

It appears today is the same. And I wouldn't have guessed the same letter twice not knowing it needed to be done so thanks!
