As I’ve been doing these I seem to have developed a frequent word vocabulary list and I recognize patterns like the ones for ever, never, there, people, books, love, everything etc. So rather than running over all the words my mind matches against a sub-list first. That speeds things up a lot because once you have a couple words there are enough partial words that the dominoes start falling. When I started I thought I’d never solve any of these in a respectable time. There are still some that I just don’t catch hold of, but fewer.
Glad you are joining our merry band. Welcome.

Thanks for the tips and the welcome!

I used to do these daily, but it’s been a while. This one took me about 10-15 minutes, but I honestly thought I had forgotten how. Maybe it’s one of those things you don’t forget once you know.

YEs, you’re getting pretty good at this.

I look for the ABCA sequence eg THAT, DEAD etc
