The standard four yet again with clue, and was convinced it was WAVE. All though I am hopeless with regard to this Wordel, I am consistent if nothing else.

See what you meant now Peter.
Exactly the same with me, 3 right after 2 lines.
So 'standard' 3 for me today. Status quo conservatur😉
Cheers, Doug😎

Happy with 3 today. Had 3 letters in the correct place after 2. You are still leaving me in your wake though Doug.😃

Down to 5 today, so many options with four letters and I chose the wrong ones. Not digested my banana yet 😀

Had 3 letter on a 4 letter word by the second try, still took 4 with a clue. Destiny I guess….

Wot? No baked beans for breakfast today then Peter?😁

😎

need to eat more Bananas right down to six

Looks like I'm in trouble tomorrow.🤔
Donkey's 😋 eaten all the bananas😋

😠😎

I didn’t have wind today. Took 3.

The following two lines are to be sung to the tune of The Banana Song:-
Yes, we have no bananas, I'll not guess the Wordel today.

Also got a bit wound up today Gary.
Until I realised what the second letter should be and got it in 2.
I feel Peter's wind on my neck🙊
😎

Oh Bu***r 4 today, got complacent over last few days.
Cheers Colin.

I thought it was a bit of a WIND-UP before I realized it was UPWIND. Got it on my final and SIXTH attempt. I am now off out and shopping for a bunch of BANANAS.

5 with clue today, better joy tomorrow 👍

4 with the obligatory clue….

Haven't been shopping yet Peter, shops shut here yesterday.
Bavaria is very catholic.
So "We have no bananas today"
So 'standard' 3er today. Avge. 2.79.
I see you creeping closer again😮
😎

Oh a 3

2 today. My starter word proved very useful.😃. I bought bananas yesterday Doug.😬😃

Two as well today, 😀

Back from holiday, the rest must have helped as got in 2
And average back up to 3.56
Cheers Colin

Would have been one if I'd used my starter word. O well two's not bad.😁

Eeh…had the first 3 letter on the second try, still needed a clue. 4 today.

Normal 🙄 service resumed, 3 lines today.
Starter guess today produced zilch😠 Bit of a hitch😉
Tried a completely new tack, which gave me the first 3 letters.
The rest, as THEY(?) say, is history😀
Peter is catching up😮 Must buy more bananas tomorrow😋
😎

Got Knotted, and needed the usual four with clue.

3 today. 😃

Four on this one, I was getting all tied up in knots about it so I used the clue...

You KNOTS be serious 😂🍦

Well tie me up 4 again

3 today, 👍. Have a great day everyone 😀

Woo-hoo!! Got it in 2😀

Got in 3.😐
After paddling up the wrong canal🤔

😎

Definitely well and truly right up sh?t creek without a KAYAK this one. On my third attempt, I had only discovered one single letter an A. Unbelievable, got it in four with the clue.

went up the creek with this one

4 with clue today, up the creek without a paddle 🤣 . Now back to finishing some breakfast

This one is good Two double letters. Not fair.😂😁
Rick

4 with a clue today, totally missed it the night before. So, I’ll take what I can get…..because I ain’t seen nothing yet…🤣

gosh how did that tax the brains of the household we was getting a sinking moment

Earlier clue please, as I'm stuck on 4 as well.....😂😂😂😂😂😂😂

Four today. No clue. Must get better.😃

How about some dispensation for a bewildered pensioner and the clue before the third attempt? Otherwise, I am never going to get out of my present and ongoing fourth attempt. Gary.

Four is my middle name

4 again today, still consistent 😊

best ever yet in three its all these maritime themes that helps

Back to 4 today, starting with skeg, gave me K, then lock etc

Me 2 Cash👍
Starter (part of a ship/boat) gave me 3 correct, 1 (a vowel) wrong.
Thought through the remaining vowels which gave-
An installation, a water fowl, a short form of a forename (and an alternate meaning which will remain unmentioned!🙊).
I chose the most logical in a nautical context😁
So managed to average out the two 4s with two 2s!
Doug😎

3 for me. Another word that the plural was used only recently. Tricky. First guess gave nothing but then hold gave me o in the correct place and d in a position where the only other place would be the first letter.😀

Got it on 2!!!😁

well out my depth today all went losing the fathom

best ever 2 lines

Out of my depth today. Took 3😀
