Half a page and no dick swinging…….
I did it in 5 but don't have a fancy graph to display. You'll just have to take my word for it. Line 4 was a desperate appeal for a bolt from the blue that might lead me to the word. Miraculously it offered up two letters I would otherwise never have got, giving me the 5 letters of which the wordle comprised.

If only I had access to those coloured blocks the other chaps use to display the size and prowess of their Wordling brain and skills, I could attach a line by line description of each step of the process, adding even greater interest to my readership by providing insight into the mind ponders and meanderings that lead to eventual success.

I could write a book - 'Wordling in the Shadowy Senior Years - One man's efforts to outwit grade 5ers and elude stagnation'

Eel is horrible. Hated having it served to me in Japan for breakfast.
Love smoked eel - although got major sick in Shanghai once after having eel - on reflection I think it was fished out of a very dodgy canal - recovered after a couple of days.

Had stopover in Hong Kong on way home - on holiday with my 2 boys. Pity was we were a bit nervous about eating out the first night.. .. in one of the world's great food cities we had lamb chops in the hotel restaurant rather than being more adventurous - I realise HK is not Shanghai.....

All I ever stayed in when in Hong Kong was the 16th floor dormitory on the top floor of that labyrinth of buildings in Kowloon, Chunking Mansions. There was a ladder from within our hostel to the roof where we once smoked through a coke can some Californian weed plucked straight from some intrepid traveller's bottom. Within the walls of the collaborating buildings were Indian restaurants with plastic cloths on the tables for slopping your cheap chicken curries around on.

With any luck, you could be selected for a movie role or a smuggling run to Seoul, Taipei and Tokyo, partaking in one of life's most cavalier and amateurish operations. The building's basement which flooded every monsoon was full of shops selling cheap suitcases and animated Indians bidding down whatever price was quoted in their quest to be suitcase king of Chungking mansions. Outside the walls, we couldn't afford any food not in Styrofoam boxes in a stand up cafe, nor any transport outside the ubiquitous ferries between HK and Kowloon. It's a city in which if you want to have luxury or fun, you need money, and lots of it.

The only reason I would ever be nervous about eating out in HK is cost. I imagine those lamb chops set you back far more than a slice of eel challenging the worth of its use by date.

Have you thought about being a travel blogger/ influencer?

He'd be fantastic writing for a company like lonely planet or intrepid. Just needs an editor to calm down the anti-safety rants and incitement to criminality so they don't get sued too often.

I wish I was 40 years younger. You see the 'likes' those vloggers get and the perks they obviously enjoy from airlines and hotels. I love playing around with video. Yeah I would have have loved to do it at the right time. Ticks all the boxes, including a job that not only allows but requires you to be overseas.

Apparently, grandma and granda stuff goes viral on TIK Tok. You can make it work at any age. Get on it!
 
Highly recommend “Gaslight” at the comedy theatre.
Only on for a short time but if you like physiological thrillers then you’ll enjoy this one.
And bonus, no dick swinging required.
Physiological thrillers?

There’s a new genre for you.

My psychiatrist said I should see a physiotherapist who recommended a psychologist to treat my Wordle induced dick swinging. I finally selected a trainee psychic
