That waffle was tough. I put it to one side this morning and only just did it a moment ago. I always solve it on paper first. A couple of todays words were obvious but initially I had them swapped around.

GrannyMac

I've never done it on paper. Maybe it's time I started!

Wrong choice on last

I think they must have somebody new setting all of these. A lot more guessing seems to be involved all round. Some of my misses today are getting blamed on distractions though - whatsapp messages.

I've thought for a while that different people must devise these.

It's a double  :yay:

I think we may be back to a fairer puzzle setter although I did notice some either/ors along the way

GrannyMac

A couple, but Rescue was more rational.

Double blown by haste  :sad:

GrannyMac

I thought it was the more rational puzzle setter today.  Last word could have been wrong though, for once I guessed right.

klondike

We followed different paths. I messed one up halfway through and immediately realised what I should have gone with instead. Yes a lot fewer annoying wild guesses and deliberate gotchas needed today. Oddly I often find using rare letters in Octurdal makes it easier rather that harder.

There's a difference between difficult and unfair.
