Birdie to finish. One of my better rounds…
Apparently Mike is having problems with his abacus. In the meantime I’m left wondering if my double bogey on the 18th has led to my hands slipping from the Golden Trophy . …
If we need a volunteer to do the scores on the doors for April, i don’t mind having a crack at it.
Thankyou very much.
Despite what Lodes thinks, scorers are allowed to sleep occasionally…
So here are the final scores in descending order of Spoonworthiness:
Black celeb: 78, +6
Steve T: 72, par
Clive: 71, -1
Steve W, Junior W: 70, -2
Paul Hewston, Lodes: 69, -3
Cheshire Cat: 68, -4
Jim: 67, -5
Chiz, mikethep: 66, -6
Bamber, plumb1909: 64, -8
Badartdog, fortuneight: 63, -9
Max the Dog: 62, -10
Carl, Hubes: 61, -11
I’ve checked and rechecked, and the answer still comes up the same. The winner is…
Leedsboy: 59, -13!
Well done to him – and all of us, really. It’s come to something when 6 under par is mid-table mediocrity. And Spoonie’s off across the Tasman.
Thanks Mike.
Excellently curated, deserved winner and a shout out to my sponsor, Radio 4.
Good stuff Mike.
Thank you for the very strong stewarding Mike – a steady hand during the weather as well. I still can’t believe I guessed PADLE before LADLE though.
So, I was going to accuse you of making up a word, but no: padle is a Scottish word for lumpfish, Cyclopterus lumpus. Chances of it being a Wordle solution are minimal, I feel.
A Dutch word for lumpfish is snotolf, it turns out.
Thanks Mike.
Roll on April, even though I will be feeling the pressure to better this month’s score.
Great stuff, Mike. Well done Leedsboy.
Thanks Mike
Cheers Mike
Well done Leedsboy.
Thanks Thep
BC – spoonie has taken a liking to Dylan, chimurenga music from Zimbabwe and Mauritanian praise somgs so if you could compile some playlists he’d appreciate it.
Spoonie’s arrived wearing a kaftan and beads around his “neck”.
He’s changed a lot since the last time he was here. I will put together a playlist and post it on a separate thread. You heard.
Well done Mike and round of applause for Leedsboy 👏
Thanks very much Mike.
You’re all very welcome. My wife now thinks that ‘I’m going to update my Wordle spreadsheet’ is code for something dodgy.
Thanks very much Mike – and congrats (again) to Leedsboy
I came on here to triumphantly post my magnificent eagle only to realise that the grandstands are empty and the cameras have stopped rolling…
Well done Leedsboy. You’re a deserved winner as a fellow purist playing on hard mode.
Head over to Mad March Wordle…
Or even the other one – doh!!
