With hopes snookered for usual TV, I thought I would network that Kate Humble is the celebrity guest on Countdown the Channel 4 words and number game this week. It is a retirement ambition to be a contestant but my personal scores are not really high enough. Good on numbers, get the occasional seven lettered word but never made a conundrum. Hence the title, anyone find the word?
Otherwise you can wait for Springwatch to return to our screens at the end of the month.
Here is another one

GARDENING!
I'll try to watch Countdown - it's on at such an awkward time that I don't see it as often as I would like. But I try to beat the contestants (not often!). Much better at the letters than the numbers.
But am I the only one screaming at the telly "pick a consonant, you Muppet! You don't need another vowel"????
PHJ
Muppet, that's me. However in another ten years I may have a go, it has been running for a long time and will probably continue to.
On my cable TV I have Channel4 + 1, which means it is shown at 4-30.
Now here's the thing - it could be you v me in a gardening special!!! And couldn't we find some wonderful, wacky words!!!!!
PHJ
Looks like your ready to be a contestant already, all you need to know is your 75 x table up to thousand.
Or how to use the letters:
Give me a consonant: L
And another: N
And a vowel: O
And another: I
Ummmm: another consonant: C
And ummmm a vowel: E
And another: A
And a final ...... ummmm .... consonant: R
PHJ
Oh! Can't remember - is it nine letters rather than eight!
PHJ
Back to the drawing board
Caroline/acrolein/cornelia
All good anagrams, Amazing.
Some things smell very sweet! Beloved by our apian friends, perhaps?
PHJ
Lonicera. Do I get a prize?

PHJ
Well, done, btw. Just a bit of harmless fun, methinks.
..and it is your turn to choose the letters?
