I’ve never have got the last four!

Oh I like that! I’m not a games person but I love Only Connect and the wall. Is it just one a day like Wordle?

Yes, just one a day. Sometimes I don’t even get the link for the last four words, usually because it’s quite American-but it is a NY publication.

There is a link to Connections Hints. There are several sources. I like the Forbes one. The hints are not too obviousl, they just help a little. I sometimes use them. (Just google Connections Hints).

I wish the time could be shown as well. I was quite quick this morning. Pure luck, mind. I have no idea about the purple group.

My daughter also plays and often knows the more obscure connections that I haven't a clue about. I thought she might know purple but she didn't.
