Wordle 1,540 4/6* (1/2 on 3) ⬛⬛⬛🟨⬛ ⬛🟨⬛⬛🟩 🟩⬛🟩⬛🟩 🟩🟩🟩🟩🟩 Minute Cryptic - 6 September, 2025 (this is par two and I found it more difficult than yesterday's par 3. I never show my teeth in photos because when I was 15 I had the living shit beaten out of me, by people bigger, older, and tougher than me, which split one of my front teeth right down the middle and I had it, very painfully, because the nerve was exposed, and I was black and blue, replaced with a tooth on a peg. Which I was always self conscious about, aside from later being in the "my PTSD has PTSD (and so on)" stack. And it fell out during lockdown and I kind of prefer eating without it, so I thought I'd leave it out until I can afford a solution that looks good and I can eat and sleep without worrying about choking on a tooth falling out. The downside is people who don't really know me assume I must have been eating too much toffee and swigged too much Irn Bru. But I do smile all the time in real life because lots of things are funny and I like people. Not so much what happened to Irn Brew when they replaced the sugar with stuff that tastes like crap and has a poor evidence base for is effectiveness in weight control. My favourite soft drinks, before a TV chef ruined them, were Irn Bru - a school friend's parents were Scottish so I was familiar with Scottish sweet stuff from about age 8, Lucozade, Purdeys (still not artificial sweetenered last I drank it), Ribena (now artificially sweetened - it's mostly kids that drink it, not me), and the cans of plain Perrier (which were just massively overpriced sparklling water). Today is Saturday and I'm going to hear the Thomas The Tank Engine theme song upwards of ten times. FYI I know Irn Bru has the classic bottles but I'm not paying that much on principle. That doesn't make me happy.) "Small salad of lime and, say, cheese" (5) 🟣🟣🟣🟣🟣🟣🟣🟣 I scored: 2 under par
