Maybe one for the cruciverbalists

Hang up your Chisels and Plane blades and take a load off with a recently turned goblet of your favourite poison, in the lounge of our Gentlemen's (and ladies) Club.

Why does your Wordle look different to mine?

once I have done the wordle the first thing I do is show off to the family by Sharing on WhatsAp. I then do a screengrab of the whatsap, crop it so I just get the image, save, then upload to the thread here. Only takes a few secs.

Dammit. Would have got it in 3 as I thought of the answer but thought...if they can't spell favor then they certainly won't have this wird in their dictionary. Too English !

Ok, thanks. My small phone does not have What-sis-name ................ :?
