I admit to "jagging" a few of those words. I saw sheikh only after I typed in khaki....the kh triggered something. The way in which my brain works (& doesn't work!) never ceases to amaze me.

It was a tough one but a good challenge! I was sure it’d be a random plural I missed, but no - SATIATE. Definitely NOT satisfied with that!

I see doxydaisy’s got a rosette today - 👏🏻🙌🏻.

And so did you.. good on you! This was an easier puzzle compared with the previous one I thought. Not so much brain ache this time!

Except for getting the seed word, for me! Had to have a nap before that one surfaced … 😂

Doxydaisy, Maudland and rogue_mother all deserve kudos for achieving a rosette.

Commiserations to auntiemo and ozzyjack for coming up one short.

Personally, I fell 3 short with CLINICIAN, CABANA and the seed word BILLYCAN being my offending words.

Onwards and upwards to today's 7bm...

I would just like to say thanks to you John for continuing the 7 by many club that Les started. It is keeping it alive!

Self-interest was what drove this; I was missing the to and fro of this topic and it's also a nice way to honour Les's memory...

Well, that was embarrassing!  :-[ 10 words to go for me but 2 of those were American spellings of words I got!

Oh, well...

auntiemo, rogue_mother and doxydaisy were, again, the best placed of those in this thread, with Roddles and Maudland a little further back - well done to all of you. I'll try harder in today's puzzle...

I missed froufrou. Not really a word you would use in everyday conversation so I think I can be excused ;D
Don't beat yourself up too much John. This is supposed to be a bit of fun. So why do I feel like tearing my hair out trying to get a rosette!
