Here’s my confession of the day – even though I only had the Spangram left I still managed to get it wrong – seeing HIP FELLOWS before the correct answer. Well, it sort of works. I’m sure there’s many a CLUB, SOCIETY, or CIRCLE whose members are hip fellows! Although they are most likely the ones where they serve port and people in woollen suits spend the entire day hiding behind enormous newspapers.

I’m an independent soul, not a joiner of things. Still, in my youth I was forever joining organizations in search of FELLOWSHIP and kindred companions who liked the same things I did then after not finding any, never returning. The truth is you need to stick these things out to “find your people” – so I would encourage readers to get with the in CROWD. Or, at least, give it a couple of weeks. We are many they are few and all that. Unless, of course, you want to form your own gang, in which case just a BUNCH will do.

How did you do today? Send me an email and let me know.
