  89. Line 3, couldn’t see a word. Made another cup of tea, took a photograph of a hoopoe on our neighbour’s roof, read a report on yesterday’s events at Lords, finally found a word – naturally it was Wrong (although much better than the solution). Ah well, a par …

    Posting from post A&E dept of my local hospital as my blood pressure started to increase dramatically into the danger zone around midnight. (Sounds like a Kiss song in the making to me). A short ambulance trip later and here I am. I’ll post an update with tomorrows entry. I won’t blame Wordle but it was a tricky one.

  144. Sometimes my stupidity really has me gasping.
    I even resorted to a female private part before the obvious became obvious.

    I think that gets me back to level par. My blood pressure readings today are also back to normal which is quite a relief. My GP has referred me for a rapid cardiac assessment tomorrow so I should know whether that was/is a factor by tomorrow’s wordle. I’m hoping for a night’s sleep free from the drama of yesterday evening.

    Could have been a lot worse I think, that one.
    5+ so still slap in the middle of Spoonville.
