New -threads today (game #499) – the answers
The answers to today’s threads, game #499, is …
- Game
MUSIC - Rides
- Pets
- Suppliers
- Prizes
- Spanggram: County fairs
- My rating: Hard
- My score: 2 tips
The phrase “come one, come all” is not one I am familiar with at all. That sounds like that kind of thing people would whisper to each other in Handmaid’s speech – But I can see how it would act as a rally shout about county fairs.
By not knowing what I was looking for, and only finding words that were not games, it took two tips before I started walking gambling and music did not narrow things, but rides confirmed that we were looking for some kind of fair.
Getting the top to the lower livestock revealed the excitement and from here I was practically at home. No prizes for me today, hope you deserve a rosette at least.
How did you do today? Tell me that in the comments below.
