A real process of elimination today but still a try to spare.

Got wordle in 3 today. Tried primal but although I thought I put prime numbers in, it tells me I didn't. Maybe like many things it is easy when you know how.

Maybe like many things it is easy when you know how.Likewise tried Primel but more just guessing as I don't have any stored knowledge of prime numbers (as with words) so the elimination process is just trial and error. Probably won't bother with it again.

I like doing sudoku, and Addoku (otherwise known as killer sudoku). I recently found a website of Lovatts with online puzzles and they put up new puzzles every day at different levels. I enjoy doing them and keeping the mind active as I get older.

I enjoy doing them and keeping the mind active as I get older.Sadly there isn't much evidence that puzzles such as crosswords, Sudoku, Wordle etc do much to fend off dementia. They are fun and may help to keep us cheerful, but that's about it. The reason seems to be that they all use knowledge that we already have and do not create new neural pathways.
A better way to keep your brain working is to learn something new such as a foreign language or a musical instrument, or learn about a field of knowledge that you are interested in but have never studied.

I wish I'd thought of the game first: https://www.bbc.com/news/business-60208463
Going to try and think of another word game that millions want to play
Got it in 3 today which is my best for a while.

It was a Phew for me this morning.
I hope the new owner doesn't monetise it too quickly or too obviously, but I suspect our daily innocent fun will be tainted in some way, why else would they have bought it.
