CALMEDDRIVEWAYS
CRIMEWAVES–SLAYED
same
Same, but not in driveways apparently.
Me too. Better than the OA, imo
Same here
Same! CRIMEWAVES-SLAYED.
My partner found CALMED-DRIVEWAYS, fewer letters so he wins! This time…
CRIMEWAVES / SLAYED
OA
Likewise!
OA
similar CLAIMED-DRIVEWAYS. reminds me of the practice in Brooklyn neighborhoods of putting a folding chair on the curb to claim a parking space
Same
CLAIMED-DRIVEWAYS here as well. A race to find a parking place.
A common practice in Cambridge, MA that came under scrutiny in the past few years, but diehards remain and place lawn chairs, trashcans, cones, etc. out despite being ruled illegal in 2015 🙂
Yup. Claimed-Driveways was how I got there too. Had a devil of a time with the R given the E and A were on the same side.
SEMICIRCLED – DRIVEWAYS
Drop off under the porte-cochere.
OA, and:
DRIVEWAYS—SEISMICAL
Probably not the best feature of a driveway.
DRIVEWAYS—SEMICIRCLED*
SEMICIRCLED*—DRIVEWAYS
OA today.
CLAIMED-DRIVEWAYS for me, too. I had high hopes for CLAVICLES and WAVICLES (whatever they are).
I saw WAVICLES—SEMIDRY*, but the latter was unaccepted in LB. Still a PSW though.
claimed – driveways
OA quickly too.
A fairly quick OA in what is a highly constraining array both for words and birds! Certainly the lowest yield in a long, long time. 🐦 MACAW, MESIA, SMEW 🐦🐦 IIWI
CRIMEWAVES-SLAYED
OA
OA, but took ages as I didn’t spot SLAYED to go with CRIMEWAVES 😡
Not proud, but CRIMEWAVES—SALESLADY here. Maybe she’s selling drugs, guns.
I found this 3 worder: CRY / YAMS / SWIVELED
Another CLAIMED-DRIVEWAYS here.
OA today in short order and stark contrast to yesterday, when my 45-day winning streak (personal best) came to an unceremonious end at the hands of friggin’ AQUALUNG. 🤬
Time to climb that hill again. 💪
Crimewaves slayed
Claimed – Driveways. Actually works a bit better than Calmed – Driveways. I’ve never met a Calm driveway although I must say I’ve claimed a few driveways in my past :)))) Loved Crimewaves and Slayed/Saleslady
