The concept is simple enough..find two short words that you can pair together and then add a 'Y' to form a longer word. Sound easy? Then Y Not try one.

The short words are used only once. wink

For example: note + worth plus a 'y' make noteworthy

sherlock

Short Words List: hone pass board thing b b bab moon side bod an no bod near sit ever shad ke dew hone

Remaining Short Words List: side shad

= 1. an/y/bod/y
= 2. ever/y/thing
= 3. b/y/pass
= 4. ke/y/board
= 5. no/bod/y
= 6. near/b/y
= 7. hone/y/moon
8.
= 9. bab/y/sit
= 10. hone/y/dew

As I've grown older, I've found that my memory is not as good as I used to think it was.

I change all my passwords to "incorrect". So whenever I forget, it says, "your password is incorrect".

Sometimes lost is where you need to be. Just because you don't know your direction doesn't mean you don't have one.

Right On manXman thumbsup

.. two y's were required and obviously some misdirection given my instructions .. hmmm, will have to keep an eye on that as normally I add a "?" to a clue when misdirection is afoot.

Happy Valentines Day
