I might not have got it either, but your mention that there was an art to it served as a useful prelude to my hitting on the right answer.

I should have done it in 2. I knew line 2 was wrong because it was a plural. I should have been more patient. #LifeLessonsFromWordle !

Why is it that sometimes, even when you have lots of letters in the bag, it still takes ages to hit on the right answer? Or it just me???

Well done!

As you can see, I was not so inspired. Luckily, there was only one possible option for the last row.

I enjoyed your spoken introduction to the book and will look out for it. Recommended on X by Philip Gwynne Jones.
