I'd add that I find that often words in the purple group just don't seem to fit the general set of words. There's an example today which I will leave till others have done the board but a couple of days ago it was 'Nicks' - there were no other words with the verb constriction so I wondered what other context I could use it in, immediately thought of Stevie Nicks, and went looking for other lead singers.

Think we've all played so:


https://en.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/Mame_(film)
Never heard of it. Also, the BBCode mangled the end of the link. The final ")" got dropped.
