Only 42 of 348 players got froufrou. Should it be classed as common?

I missed SUCCESS, SUCCESSES (on so many levels) and SUCCESSOR. Bah!  :-[

I like froufrou being common - one of those that I’m really chuffed to spot! A pleasing word too …

Uh-oh, tonight’s is a pretty long one. Chances of nodding off - high. Chances of a rosette - teeny.

Another tough one today with doxydaisy the stand-out! Well done, dox (I hope I'm not being too familiar there!) ;)

Ozzyjack and Maudland were next up but 2 off the pace, then came Roddles and rogue_mother at 3 back

I didn’t do so well with 10 words outstanding including the second seed word IRREVERSIBLE doh!!! I really should have seen that one!

On to today's challenge errr 7bm...

...and maybe this time I'll look for the American spellings!

...and that's 5 better than me! You could say you did twice as well!  :o

It was a tough lot of letters...

I caught up with the brains of the family after she gave me some very helpful hints but we both missed lilies and livelier.  I wish they wouldn't include such tough words.  :D

Thanks John.. you're not being too familiar at all. My family calls me dox (my real name is Ann - go figure).

Yeah, mine were two really obscure ones, too - LEVIES and one I’m not sure should be common - VESSEL  :-R

Well, today it was Maudland’s turn to lead the way with a well-deserved rosette in yet another tricky 7bm.
 
Rogue_mother was next at 1 off the pace and Doxydaisy, HJ (Jansika), Roddles and myself fell 2 short. Commiserations for getting so close – those rosettes are certainly hard to find…

"Tinea" and "Titivate" let me down. I'd never heard of either of those words so for once I didn't need to slap my forehead and say "Doh!".

Oh, to never have heard of tinea - you mustn't have hung out in locker rooms...   :-R :-R :-R
