This
year again I choose an easy way out. Each day I'm going to solve the Wordle
of the day, using as starter a word beginning with the letter of
the day. I post almost every day at noon my time (GMT +2. Dang you DST!), not on Good Friday, though, so I need to post on at least one Sunday to make up for this, And I'll post later Sunday because I'll have to return back home first. As the alternative badges, as supplied by Lissa suggest travel I'll prefer travel-related words as starter words, and if at all possible, I'll avoid words containing the same letter more than once.
I'll maybe add a few words about my chosen starter word if fancy takes me and I have time and energy for it, else I'll just post the solution - or not in the case that I did not solve it.
Today my starting word is Debug. It was unexpectedly difficult, and I only just solved it:
Wordle 1.751 6/6
⬜🟨⬜⬜⬜
⬜⬜⬜⬜🟨
⬜⬜⬜⬜🟩
⬜🟨🟨⬜🟩
⬜🟩🟨⬜🟩
🟩🟩🟩🟩🟩
But then the Wordle Review also tell me it has an "average of 6 guesses out of 6, or very challenging." Actually I mostly hit the average.
Debug! When I was on my big journey in Africa, we lived with the people wherever we were, naturally this included some not so pleasant side evvects. Bugs were one of them. If you're not in for graphic descriptions of creepy-crawlies, fleas, mites and lice just skip today's story.
At intervals during our journey - we travelled through Egypt and Suan for almost two months - we stayed at more luxurious places. One such was at a very rich man's palace in an oasis in southern Egypt. He owned enormous stretches of land, a village or two full of people, and lived in what I can only call a palace. His sons all worked in the off-shore, one of them had even been to Norway.
He had food and drink flown in by helicopter from Uganda at least once a week - he even had his own landing pad. Breakfast was imported white bread, eggs from his columbary, imported jams, tea and coffee with local buffalo milk. This was a luxury after weeks on beans and bread with weevils in it.
As I wrote in my topsy turvy Bucket-list post:
I've eaten bread with beetles, yes!
At least in bread
they were baked and dead
In biscuits - well, I'll let you guess.

But the biggest luxury was a washing mashine and a shower. I had a sleeping bag with a yellow inside. It was perfect for flea-spotting, the small black bugs stod out against the yellow background. All three of us stripped naked in the laundry room, stuffed everything that could be washed into the mashine, and jumped into the shower where we washed thoroughly for a long, long time.
Lice were a worse plague, we had to live with them, as washing only somewhat removed the biggest ones, and did nothing to the eggs at all. After our return to Denmark we bought combs and lice shampoo. All were combed, lice weree found and we had a treatment ... except for one boy who said that he had no lice as his scalp did not itch. But and we all continued to be infeted with lice, me and one other insisted on combing him. In the end he gave in --- combing was not necesary in order to find anything, as we lifted his hair his scalp was literally crawling with lice.
Still now I begin itching all over from just writing this.
This too was short, with some obscure hints. Sorry. I hope to have time and energy for more in the coming days.
And now for today's Wordle
