I can’t believe you don’t use the forum on your phone. It looks so much better, and it’s much easier to use. If you’ve not tried it already you should definitely give it a whirl. 👍🙂 I have also added your score to the board. 👍 I’ve missed reading your answers these past few weeks. 🙂 ---

Do the word ladders have to have that particular amount of changes @Ian_Chimp? ---

It’s okay, you can just type the answers to those as “one, two, three, four” 👍 (but if anyone ever wants to see the code for these things you can pull up the reply editor and point it at my post, and then tap the ‘quote’ speech bubble in the top left of the formatting bar, and that will copy the whole thing into your reply window 👍) ---

> [@SexInTheCity](#): > > FOOR (is this a word?!) Ah, well spotted. It should be FOOT. 🙂 I award a +1 golden edit for anyone who needs to adjust their answer. 🙂👍 > [@SexInTheCity](#): > > For the next two can I get a clue about what category of titles they are? None are jumping out at me… **Titles of films, books**? Yes, both are both. 👍🙂 ---

@Ian_Chimp I’ve just changed FOOR to FOOT on my answers, didn’t change anything else 😊 @SexInTheCity I copied the whole thing into the notes app on my phone, did it then copied and pasted it back and there appears to be a table 😊 ---

They are from a bargain bin Christmas quiz stocking filler thing, so don’t expect them to be gospel. 🙂 @MsSubExperimenter has got a couple of alternative routes on the word ladders which seem to work. 👍 Not 100% sure FLOD is a word though. 🙂 ---

@MsSubExperimenter 🤣 Got 5 now! ART was throwing me off. @Ian_Chimp **Flod** (plural flodes) A waterbody or water in general (opposed to land): A river; a waterbody that moves in one direction. A lake or ocean; a large open body of water. * * * And yes, I did just Google 🤣 ---

🤣 It’s in the Middle English Dictionary: [https://quod.lib.umich.edu/m/middle-english-dictionary/dictionary/MED16368](https://quod.lib.umich.edu/m/middle-english-dictionary/dictionary/MED16368) Okay, either I’m living in the past or It’s no longer a real word, I can accept a nil point for that one as obviously I didn’t have a clue what it meant when I put it in it just sounded like a possible real word 🤣 * * * ETA I think mainly used in Middle English because people couldn’t spell then… I clearly still can’t spell now! 😂 ---

I even checked my scrabble dictionary and it didn’t even have it in there. 🙂 We could make up our own definition? > **Flod** - the sound a butt plug makes when it falls out in the baked goods aisle.
