Oh, I DO like MISCHIEFS-SNOWCAT.
MAWASHI-INFOTECH in about 11 minutes. FAI was an absolute nightmare, cutting out anything with SHAFT, SHIFT, FISH, FACE. That pushed me to INFOTECH, where I was frustrated by the obvious SWAMI not being possible. But then I remembered going to a sumo wrestling demonstration with my brother a couple of years ago and remembered that MAWASHI was the belt – and it worked.
My Yiddish luck ran out as MENSCH led nowhere.
Kanishk and RF, can’t wait to see you, my lovelies!
Good luck, everyone, and happy Thursday!
MISCHIEFS – SNOWCAT for me.
Well done Miss Irim. Can’t wait to see Kanishk-boy too.
