OA pretty quickly.
BOUGH-HONEYSUCKLE immediately.
RF and Kanishk, can’t wait to see you, my lovelies!
Good luck, everyone – L’shana tovah tikatev v’tichatem to all who celebrate Rosh Hashanah and blessings on those for whom today is difficult, as the 25th anniversary of 9/11.
OA too.
Good job to us Miss Irim. I hope Kanishk-boy can join us today.
Gosh, this one took me ages- BOUGH – HONEYSUCKLE in about an hour after trying out options which included LUNCHEON, COCKNEYS, EYEBONES, CHUCKLES and KNUCKLEBONES (which left out just three letters but I was unable to find a match for it).
Well done, and good job to you both, RF and Irim!
Can’t believe I didn’t get this one… Had BOUGH, SUCKLE, KNUCKLEBONES, etc., but am trying not to fall into that habit of wasting too much time on it, so I bailed after 15 minutes or so.

I seem to be one of the few that got BLEUGH-HONEYSUCKLE. Once I found HONEYSUCKLE(S) it seemed clear it must pair with something. I thought BLUGH might be accepted as a sound of disgust, then tried other variants until I got to BLEUGH. Never thought of BOUGH until I came here to post.
