You have six opportunities to guess the word of the day though of course your powers of deduction come into play. Finding the answer is not entirely guesswork.

I walked the dogs earlier and was caught short and had to have a pee behind a tree which caused a few logistical problems . I’ve put my thickest jumper on today and don’t feel like eating. I will nap later, covered in dogs. Speaking of eating, I will leave you all with this charming video. Tik tok , does post a few amid the crass It’s rather hypnotic and moving from Going Gently https://ift.tt/eRJwSAO
