@Robbie @super_ram you do know that the hint should be a last resort right? 

@Fan of Big Tone @super_ram

Well done Fan of BT for solving without the hints. 👍

Solving without hints is the ultimate. I'll continue to keep trying for the ultimate.

Hopefully practice will improve my score. It's a really enjoyable but challenging word game.

Only teasing @Robbie I’ve been doing it a while now, you get to know how they think. Having said all this I’ll probably need hints tomorrow. I really enjoy doing it, it’s my favourite word game.
