An average 4 for me. The Yanks (remember it's a US app) use some odd words; pinto, intro, leary have all come up more than once in this group of games. Have you tried Quordle or Octordle?
-
Lol. Oh yeah!

Glad you're happier. I'm good; very little tree work nowadays, some firewood selling. Otherwise enjoying an acre and a half of garden and woodland in deepest East Sussex

Nice Mike. Hope they do well for you. How are you keeping? Jon

Mick, my take on the game is that a 4 is a perfectly acceptable average. That was my score today. Father-in-law in 3, bro-in-law in 2 with just one green letter in his first go!

One of our two mogs is a mole catcher; she had three last year, all from the garden. Bless her but I wish she'd leave the blue tits and wrens alone; she's even had a couple of goldcrest in her time 😡 Thankfully she's calmed down with age so we're actually nowadays talking about half a dozen birds a year but nesting season is upon us with fledglings to follow... She actually had one yesterday but was soft mouthed enough to release it unharmed when shouted at; did the same once with a fledgling nuthatch

A comment re Protos helmets: the earmuffs are crap. A few minutes chipping and your ears will ring. As recently discussed on here they can be replaced with SNR32 Peltor 4A muffs but you'll need the wishbones too as a separate fitting for them to attach to the helmet

Don't know whether you're speaking generally or were prompted by my unfocussed shot; it's a Magnolia!!!

Thanks for trying but that goes right over my head. I'll ask a youngster next time they're here

ID please, and can I cut this back quite hard?

Yep, course it is. Well done -
Thanks for trying but that's gone over my head. You do appreciate I'm on a desktop now but play the game on my phone?!

Not sure about the bark but the leaf suggests Osmanthus Cut a couple of stems back hard and see what happens -
Wow; turning compost - such an evocative subject. At least we now know how to wind up a fellow member in the future. 'I bet you turn your compost. DON'T YOU; DON'T YOU'! I'm a turner. There - I've said it. I may not be proud but it's me. I do it to aerate; sometimes I generate new heat by doing it so it's not all bad. But I'm also a no digger of woodchip veggie beds so please forgive me the error of my ways

Share with what to get it on here? I share with several other phones via WhatsApp

If we're talking quick growing Kiwi stuff how about Pittosporum? Grown as large hedging over there and is salt tolerant as far as I know. A bonus is the very strong and sweet nighttime scent from the tiny flowers that moths love

Wouldn't have a clue hoe to publish here from my phone but did today's in two 😁

Just one job or your actual occupation?

Daleks work well in the sun. Got five of them and try to rotate but find I fill them all so occasionally tip one out, mix it up and re-load it. Obvs this is in a garden, nothing commercial scale. Yes, yes, yes to a moderate amount of grass clippings - they're what make your heat

Biggest ivy stem I've ever seen

I do Wordle, Quordle, Octordle (often including Sequence and Rescue), Worldle (with sub-games within), Travle and Connections. The last is a real headscratcher: 16 apparently random words that can be grouped into four x four sets. Boy are some of the connections tenuous
-
I'll try one later in the year when I'm feeling a bit down ☺️

Amusing but worryingly possible. If any water company executive dares cry 'water shortage' this side of July 2025...
