Folky stuff, "Dirty Old Town" by Ewan McColl, written about Salford, of all places.
An old friend of mine and me used to have a folk group many years ago and we've been coaxed out of retirement to do a fund-raising gig for the local industrial museum. So I really need to practice!

We really need Keith (or somebody!) back in this thread. I've noticed that I've set at least the last three target words because we seem to complete them in the same even number of goes each time. So how about you finishing this one?

Post by **Woodles** » Thu Apr 26, 2018 9:06 am

The problem is with picking a next word which has no letters in common with the previous one so four changes are needed. Occasionally a word with one common letter could be picked?

I agree though, Keith (or a.n.other) would make things more varied.

I enjoy word games, it's a shame not many people on the forum are interested.
Dunno what we've done to upset Keith, he hasn't posted in ages.
Anyway, let's press on regardless!

PS. Just checked Keith's profile, he's not posted anything since 22nd March. Shows as active last on 19th April, so he's still looking at stuff...

Same here for both parts.

There are a couple of other posters that very occasionally pop in (Craig and Tim spring to mind although it's been a while) but it is pretty quiet.
