  1. Give it a try. It is the same game, in principle, as WORDLE, save there are four interlinked grids, as opposed to WORDLE’s single grid. I find it far more challenging and less a game of chance. I am also probably just a little bit biased, as I have never failed to complete QUORDLE, whereas WORDLE....?.
  2. I shall try and listen to his interview later. I am usually quite lackadaisical about ensuring I find out the team selection at 14H00/18H45, but I am now intrigued and shall try and check on the OS at 18H45 - failing that, I shall send a PM to @Robbored ?.
  3. I have never eaten in this restaurant and, frankly, had never even heard of it prior to this article. I was intrigued, however, by the restaurant's quote relating to its ranking on Trip Advisor and Bristol Live's own article. The restaurant's own quote says: "Ironically I had a notification today that we are in the top 10 per cent restaurants on TripAdvisor worldwide?!", which is commendable, outstanding even (if true). Bristol Live, however, goes on to add that the 'top-rated vegan Bristol restaurant': "ranks at #193 of 1,162 restaurants in Bristol". Now, I am neither a statastician nor even an expert on Trip Advisor, but can anybody explain to me how a restaurant that does not even rank in the top 10% of restaurants in Bristol - it falls comfortably within the top 20 % (16.60%, to be precise), but not in the top 10% - ranks in the top ten per cent Trip Advisor reviews worldwide?
  4. Indeed, and why ever not? Both WORDLE and QUORDLE, in that order, every morning, where time and other commitments allow. Free and enjoyable entertainment. What's not to like.
  5. Of course it was LL; disastrous for local shops and residents alike, I should imagine. As I said, I caught an airport bus that drove through West Street just a few days earlier, and I can well appreciate the major inconvenience closing down the road and immediate vicinity would have caused. I see nothing funny in it at all, but was merely pointing out the 'amusing' change to your post, whereby predictive text (presumably) changed the word 'will' to 'wiki'. 'tell you what lets have flag day at the tobacco factory next season, that wikl go down a storm' In fact, as you were. Upon reflection, it was probably just a typo ?.
  6. Ha. I caught the A1 Airport Flyer to Lulsgate on Thursday afternoon, and I can imagine the absolute chaos (and loss of trade) for everyone in the vicinity with West Street being closed - I was already running late, and if the incident had been on the Thursday it would have proved disastrous!** No, my comment about predictive text was in relation to your use of wiki instead of, presumably, would ?. **Of course, West Street closing was disastrous for everybody involved, I meant disastrous for me.
  7. If he turns out to be half as good as his older brother ?, I shall be very happy indeed.
  8. That predictive text can be a right pain, can’t it?
  9. Ah, I see you posted just before me suggesting much the same thing: great minds and all that. How are you feeling after your recent operation? I hope all is going well for you.
  10. I doubt very much that JB is receiving Legal Aid, so should imagine that, for him, this news is somewhat academic.
  11. I assume DC’s inane connection to the COVID vaccine was posted on Twitter, although I don’t subscribe. Did anything ever result from the investigation in to his mental health charity, where there was some ‘confusion’ about the accounts?
  12. I didn't want to spoil it for others, but I have now checked it out on WIKI. Spiring started his career at Bristol City before being sold to Liverpool for £60,000 in March 1973. He did not play a first team match at Anfield, only featuring on the bench twice.
  13. Out of interest, can you or anybody else, remember whether Peter Spiring ever played a league game for Liverpool?
  14. Very naughty, but extremely funny.
  15. Unless the 'keepers to whom you are referring were of a breed who charge out from their goal line parting all those before them, forwards and defenders alike, a la Moses of Red Sea fame, I assume you meant they were decisive. Many, many years ago, I used to play in a team with a goalkeeper who was both; a doctor by profession, a very large Yorkshireman who was extremely warm and gentle off the pitch, but the complete opposite when playing. He had made it very clear when he joined the club that he considered the penalty box his territory, rightly so, and to say he commanded his area would be something of an understatement: if ever we heard 'Keeper's ball!' we all knew to make ourselves scarce. Unfortunately, strong and capable though he was in the air, whether catching (usually) or sometimes punching clear, he was slow to get down to low shots, otherwise I am sure he would have played at a far higher level.
  16. I was just about to type exactly the same answer. I now wait anxiously for the correct answer ?.
  17. You mean words like flour, odour or even amour? I am sure I would be able to find others were I to scour a dictionary ?.
  18. Hi, Obviously too late for today, which is a shame, but try this one next time. It usually works for me. http://g1.mylivecricket.live/ Good Luck.
  19. Wordle 477 4/6 ? ???? ????? Did anybody attempt this today? I mean, is it really a word? Not a bad day, today. Daily Quordle 258 quordle.com ?? ? ? ??? ? ?? ?? ????? ????? ? ? ??? ??? ????? ?? ??? ? ???? ?????
  20. Oh, for goodness sake Robbo You have finally got somebody who agrees with you, for the first time, on anything, so surely you can get his initials right ?.
  21. You suggest a makeshift CB would be suicidal, yet suggest playing Sykes, whose defensive skills appear somewhat lacking, as a makeshift RB, when we have Tanner, who is a RB, waiting patiently in the wings - which is an expression, not a play on words ?.
  22. I have only just read it, but still have no idea. Perhaps illogically, I assumed that the ***** word was Source, but you appear to have confirmed it was an expletive - not only that, but Source appears to get through the censors. Can you perhaps give me the consonants, or even the initial letter?
  23. Home to Scunthorpe? In fact, I seem to recall he scored two.
