Farage is well aware of that and I said a few days back that I wasn't keen on too many Tories but Reform is a bit stuck - they need people with some experience in the actual job of being a government so the pot will 100% have to include some old faces.

I saw a video by Andrew Neil yesterday - he says there is some well known ex-Labour MP rumoured to be on his way to Reform. The phrase ex-Labour MP says it isn't a current one. Perhaps it's Andy Burnham

It's in Wordle game settings



It's called Hard Mode because the easiest way to solve it in the 6 allowed is to reveal letters as either in or out of the word. Using letters you already know forces you to guess the solution with less revealed information because reusing letters you have already revealed gives less information than using different letters.

I only repeat one letter in my standard 3 + 1 reserve That's 4 words used and only 7 letters not revealed with those being the less frequently used ones - Q and Z for starters.

It's easy enough to post up a 2 every day or even a 1 every day but actually solving it in 6 isn't much harder.

No problems Mups.. Barry comes here at six..
It will be all over at seven.. 

Edna decided to change her style
And she  met Dave at Bingo after a while
She was blonde with a streak of blue
She used to be brown with a grey hue

Quote from: klondike on Yesterday at 11:49:59 AMYep. Would only take about 100 for that to happen. Perhaps they'll go on benefits instead as few of them could get a proper job.

That's true.  Some will never have had one. 

Now the curate's pants were designed by Beckham
He bought them from a shop in Peckham
They cost a lot
He thought they looked hot
But he couldn't find a woman who was keen to inspect 'em.

Mups, I use three vowels first word, two second word, none in third word, just a 'y'. Letters like s,r,d,n,t,h,p. 

Quote from: klondike on Yesterday at 11:47:08 AMAnd during the guess stage you are still using letters you already used. Look in the options. That's called Hard Mode for a reason

Well I made 5 words before I started this time,  but if you choose words with all the vowels,  inevitably they are going to use the same letters.  

One day I shall win this at the first guess,  then you will be astounded,  amazed, and  so envious of my genius.  

P.S.  I haven't a clue what 'Hard mode'  means,  never heard of it.
