We had something of a wooden special today. All that was missing was actor Edward Woodward, the word “would” and golfer Tiger Woods.
Although I value nodded to folk legend Woody Guthrie, I successfully managed to avoid the many traps, though I suspected Wood could, Wood and Woodchuck were a kind of trick rather than the four words in a famous tongue twister.
This is the third of these I can remember that I had during the years – most recently we had “Rubber Baby Buggy Bumper”. At least I was familiar with this one.
I am disappointed that I missed ending with the number of homophones but could not resist putting together cartoon birds together.

What are new connections?
New Connections is one of several increasingly popular word games made by the New York Times. It challenges you to find groups of four objects that share something in common, and each group has another level of difficulty: green is light, yellow a little harder, blue often quite hard and purple usually very difficult.
On the plus side, you do not have to technically solve the last one, as you can answer one by an elimination process. In addition, you can make up to four errors, giving you a little bit of breathing room.
However, it is a little more involved than something like Wordle, and there are plenty of opportunities for the game to get up with tricks. For example, be careful on gay and other word games that can hide the answers.
It can be played free of charge via the new Games website on desktop or mobile.
