I am sure I wasn’t the only player to begin today’s game with CRUNCH, PLANK, PUSH-UP and CALF RAISE, but this collection of basic exercises wasn’t the only red herring lurking in today’s game.
I also got briefly diverted by candy brand names and birds, before taking the PLUNGE with KINDS OF BRAS and PARTS OF A PIRATE SHIP.
With eight tiles left I took a gamble on the single words being one group and the two-word tiles being another, rather than taking the time to actually see the quite obvious threads.
