FORKEDDEVILISHLY
Official in about 5 minutes.
Same, but literally in a minute, with no other finds along the way. Clears the decks for a busy day. Okay, busy-ish.
Went back and found an aquatic alternative: Yorked Devilfish. What happens when you eat too much octopus. Or a bit of cricketing triumph against an oddly-named opponent.
A slick alternative to the official solution, Bernie; well played!
Excellent! I saw devilfish, but couldn’t make anything of it. Just the official answer here.
Official
I too found Yorked-devilfish. Surprised it was accepted. I spent too much time on hydrofoils.
I saw fork and was thinking -ishly but just didn’t put it together today. Doesn’t feel like a win but I’m taking it anyway.
Ditto
I was replying to Peter. Now I’m talking to myself…
But we are listening to you talk to yourself lol
official but not in 5 minutes
Same here. All told, perhaps 10–15min, but scattered throughout the day. Had high hopes for HORSEFLY and HORSEFLIES, but no dice.
Official
Official here, as well. Unable to make anything out of FIORDS, IVORY, or FLESHY, only to spot FORKED for a rather quick solve. My LBF score was 11 -I’ve noticed that, most of the time, I get 7/12 letters right. I’m going
RUT CAM SHE BWX
next.
Official in about 10 minutes.
Official here as well.
Official after a lot of messing around!
Official quickly. Inspired by last week’s incubus 😈
A quick official but a complete blank on birds! So close in so many cases, but the placements on the same side of E and R and of K and I were real killers. The closest thing to a bird that I could find today was HORSEFLY!
😄 Wings are a good start.
I smiled on that one. 🙂
Yes, I was thinking that when I came across HORSEFLY! That’s about as close as it gets.
Official here with a few sips of coffee left in the cup – a good day!

Official. But only after a little toying with SELFISH(LY), YOKE(D), FRISK(ED), etc. To my surprise, DELISH was accepted as well.
The LB gods are capricious. Today they accepted HORSEY, too.
Official. The satanic theme is odd, seeing as it’s St. Patrick’s Day.
☘️👍
Yes, but this solution really made me smile. Nice TI, and cute, too.
