Went for English milk rather than American beans........

[Sean of the Shed]

Not a word I would ever have considered, but a lucky second guess left no other option.

I would disagree

[Sean of the Shed]

Yes, turns out I could have had PITON or PINOT, but I had never thought of the first and the second isn't an English word, though.

I wouldn't have said the solution was an English word?

That is also true, I guess I was fortunate that I never considered the other two.

[Various Artist]

That's unreal bad luck S. aureus, I've rarely seen someone have a complete anagram with the first word let alone then take three further attempts to shuffle the five letters into the correct order.

And yes, I would never have considered 'pinto' an English word any more than 'pinot'. I was about all I could see at turn 4 however, so was just relieved to find it counted. Had to google to confirm it broadly means a piebald horse in US English, though I still didn't come across the beans thing.

I R A T E
F I L T H
M I S T Y
P I N T O

Meanwhile, I'm quite amazed to find HO managed to get all four of my words but in a different order:

I R A T E
M I S T Y
F I L T H
D I T T O
P I N T O

And I would totally have gone for DITTO ahead of PINTO any day, had I only thought of it...

Well at least I've heard of this one. Not a great run of words at the moment

Yeah, a 5 for me too. Not great, but I didn't have any green on the board after 4 so it feels like a minor triumph.

[Sits]

At last a decent score. My kids voted this “a Dad sort of word”:

[Logan Mountstuart]

I'll be honest. Not a clue. It was the only word that fitted in line 5, after about 4 "this is not in the word list" s.

[Logan Mountstuart]

In my paranoid, 4 in the morning state, I even started doubting whether the second yellow E was only yellow because of the green E. I really should do this later in the day.

Literally a birdie, as I've just said to VA in our match.

EGRETs? We've had a few, I see.

Chalk me up as one of the club, though my par 4 meant that Rogin's 'birdie' was enough to halve our match:

S H A R E
T R I E D
U T T E R
E G R E T

It certainly took a while to work out where to go after that third turn.

Typical that today I chose to start with neither IRATE or ORATE, either of which would've given me three (wrongly-placed, admittedly) letters right out of the gate...

Very good.

Wow, do you live in Kew Gardens or something? Crows and herring gulls are about as exciting as it gets here
