We had a similar experience...1:17:54 FWOE (again!)<br /><br />We had a similar experience. As I mentioned yesterday, the NE was a total washout for us, and we, like you, had to just clear everything away at a certain point and start anew. I guess it was finally getting HOOKMEUP that finally broke things. That and HUMORME. We, too, tried two final Es for the shocking MELIKEY. "Mañana" a few days ago, and now MELIKEY? At least it wasn't "Me Rikey." Too much? Yes. Too much. Sorry.<br /><br />There was a little too much, maybe, that we didn't love in this one, but it was a good challenge, and that's one of the chief requirements of a Saturday, so I guess that's good.<br /><br />Our FWOE came from having NUsCAKE and REsELLS, both of which seem valid, especially given the foreign "babka" in the NUTCAKE clue. Oh well.<br /><br />Thanks again, Colum, for taking on the reviews this month. I've very much enjoyed reading them. It was a much needed break for me, and I'm refreshed and ready to take the next month!<br /><br />Go Pats!Horace Fawleyhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/04676932991883111336noreply@blogger.com
