Just seen this thread and joined following the link. I’m not usually very good with puzzles but got a perfect score on today’s puzzle with no mistakes so very pleased.

Is it me or are the purple ones usually the trickiest?

2 correct in 2 days smile. I found the yellows weird.

Siope Tue 30-Apr-24 09:10:45

Parsley, in theory the purple group is always the trickiest. The degree of difficulty, according to the site, is yellow (straightforward), green, blue, purple (tricky).

I wouldn't have got the purple ones.

The thread will close at 1,000 posts, Elless
