Thank you @missy ! Yes that was one bright spot yesterday, thank goodness Wordle went smoothly (and sweetly haha) or it would have only added to my general anxiety...

I did technically get through to Fedex yesterday by way of getting hold of customer service on the phone (I don't think the online chat was manned at all, since they kept me at no. 3 in the queue for 3 hours before disconnecting). However I'm still not getting anywhere as the rep just said my case was probably getting processed and couldn't give any timeline or redirect me to anyone in the relevant department.

I've been trying to dispute a customs charges invoice from them - the charges were erroneous, as it was an Amazon.com purchase and my local EU VAT had already been collected by Amazon under the new EU International-One-Stop-Shop (IOSS) scheme, and the package should have cleared customs in a flash without any additional fees or charges.

I wrote to them to dispute it under their standard procedure two weeks ago after receiving the invoice, no word from them since then, but a reminder this week that they'll be taking legal actions.

The whole Fedex customer service system in Ireland seems to have gone dead. I used to think UPS was frustrating (they made the same mistake recently about a similar package, but was able to correct it and withdraw the charges in two days while talking to me on the phone), but this is another level.

And can you believe that FedEX is an official word in the Collins Scrabble word list? I was really surprised to find that out and I can't say I like it...

Hopefully Fedex is better in the US for you folks, though. Why is it so difficult to buy anything from the outside in Ireland? ;(

I got very lucky today picking the first 4 letters with my first guess.

And if there is one lesson I learn over and over it's give something new a try before thinking I won't like it. I wrote this off before even knowing what it was about because I thought I don't like word games. So glad I decided to see what it was all about and thanks to @VRBeauty for starting this thread.

It's all about that first guess.

I love that today's wordle is jewelry based :)
Dancing Fire would have liked today's wordle.

Not sure if anyone has already mentioned this, but if not, and you'd like a bit more of a challenge....

Thanks for the link @mrs-b . Beginner's luck today-took me less tries than regular Wordle :)

I almost missed your post @mrs-b. And thanks. I think. :lol:

I really like Wordle 2 too. :)

Thanks so much for turning me onto Wordle and Wordle 2. It's very engaging and entertaining.
I am probably going to stop sharing here just because it's clogging up the thread. But I appreciate all who have posted here and who continue to share. :)

Got it in four in spite of an error in my third word. I’m making an unforced error almost every day these days! Oh well - even the words with errors can give you clues to the ultimate answer. Same as “real life,” I suppose!

Took me 3 tries. But I still feel like I pulled a rabbit trick...

2nd try today. Got lucky on first guess with 3 correct letters in the correct position. Usually the more letters I get correct on the first or 2nd try, the longer it takes me to finish. Go figure. My brain works in opposition to rational thought.

Glad to see other game suggestions posted. Just finished the entire archive of games and was wondering what to do next. Definitely a fun distraction!

I guess I got interrupted (or more likely, distracted) when I was posting my results yesterday! It took me five tries, but it was my first error-free game in a few days. Phew - I was beginning to think I was losing it - LOL!

Got it in three today thanks to a lucky choice of starting words.
