Argh 😤. Free association overload.

Done and probably done? Same issue as others?
If I'm around, I am willing to join the Muggle Zoom room at other times to lend a hand to those in need.

Off of page 1, so I can finally greet Isaac and open my tab for the weekend.

Ok I can finally post on page 2 (in deference to my page one heros). I had so much trouble DLing the pdf. I had to click faster than the pop up could load. Tough. Are we finally at the end of our long, free run? I’m not signing up for anything, nor am I paying. Thoughts please.

I had no trouble printing it out. Browser issues perhaps? I use Chrome.

On the beach. And I have some Guinness cans in the fridge. How fortuitous!

Ashore.

The Rabbit shouldn't have been complaining about the dearth of storied holes the past few weeks. This week has the potential for a gross, or more.

I am on shore and... that was not exactly Shenk-esque. I'm double-checking to make sure I'm not missing something (which I certainly could be).

Your Rabbit does not harbor ill-will against any Muggle, but this week gives every indication of breaking his boredom.

Hmmm. I see a beach, and I assume that's the one with a bunch of muggles on it. But.... Think I'll sleep on this one before actually submitting.
If you want help with a meta, feel free to PM me. The more specific you are about what you have and what you want, the more likely I can help without spoiling.

(And if I help you win a mug, I’ll be especially delighted.)

Did not have a good week, so my brain just can't brain this thing. I'm declaring surrender. See everyone next week, sigh.

On shore with, I assume, similar reservations to many others.

I'm only resting comfortably for having much more accomplished solvers verify my answer.

I slogged through a ton of seaweed & murky water, stepping into hole after hole along the way.

I agree: antiundisShenkian. Not "bad" in any egregious way, but outside of my expectations & previous experience, such as they are.

I am with you. Seeing a lot of things, but seeing nothing.

On the road this weekend, so maybe will have a chance to ferment in the back of my mind.

Ashore4us! I thought we were on the cutting room floor. Phew! Another google fest. Sometimes I feel like the Scarecrow in the Wizard of Oz, "If I Only Had a Brain!" Our answer was confirmed by a super solver. I love this group!

We are always happy to get to know other muggles and help in any way! PM's are always welcome. The next best thing to winning a mug is helping a fellow muggle win a mug!

I have an answer. It fits in every way including secondary hints. Yet it seems to break a fundamental rule and I can’t get past that.

So either this is an ungratifying aha or the mother of all rabbit holes.

I too will sleep on it. Perhaps several nights.

Stay well all
