Clue/Question: When Harry and Meghan splashed each other on their honeymoon, it was a – – –
Answer: ROYAL “WETTING“
(A semi-timely pun! It’s been under two months since their nuptuals, BUT I don’t think they’ve actually taken a honeymoon yet! Some say Meghan wants some kind of beach getaway, but with Harry’s coloring he better bring plenty of sun-block!
All of today’s clue words are old friends, but all of their jumbles appear to be new. I thought that “tuondl” was a great jumble. It gave me a bit of pause, but not too much. The answer letter layout was a nice twelve letter long jumble. It might have led some of you to think that the first word might be WATER, as it did me, for about three seconds. But somehow, I saw ROYAL, and then the pun doused me like a splash of cool water!
Fun cartoon. We have the classic sinking sailboat on the horizon. Before reading a word of the cartoon, I thought this might be just some guy meeting a mermaid, after a shipwreck. But, the dialog clued me in, and then the clue/question finalized that they were the latest famous royals. I still find it hard to believe that so few people seemed to know about the show “Suits”, where Meghan gained her fame. My wife and I have been HUGE fans of the show since Day 1, in 2011. We think it’s the best show on television. Hopefully, because of this merger of British royalty to American starlet, people will be, or have been, binge watching the past seasons on Hulu or Amazon Prime. Be well and do good, friends.) — YUR
PS. I know the word is supposed to be spelled “nuptials”, but I’ve always heard it pronounced nup-tu-als, or nuhp-shuhls, so I refused to correct it above. Hey! It’s my blog. I do what I want! LOL! — YUR

Can I rate this one 10 stars?! It always makes me feel so much better when you have a hiccup with the same word I was stumped on..’untold’ won’t be on the toughie word list, but did give me a 25-second delay! ……nuptuals…you go, UR! I’m the same with ‘sherbert’- it’s spelled ‘sherbet’ of course, but I grew up with ‘sherbert’ and so it will forever be! …..and woo hoo, a Suits fan!!! We’ve been watching from episode 1, huge fans as well!!!…we too, have been puzzled by the relative obscurity of the show…….ps, don’t you think the ‘seasons’ are too short?? It seems they have the summer or winter premiere and 5 minutes later, it’s the finale. It always surprises me that they don’t get nominated for Emmys, but I think those Grand Pooh Bahs are mostly out of the quality loop. …. Happy Mudding, and Happy 4th!
I’m REALLY hoping that Happy Mudding has something to do with off-road vehicles, and NOT something I found with Googling!!!
Yes. Suits rules . . . and the seasons are too short! Louis Litt is the most human character ever. You hate him one moment, and the next you want to to hold him and tell him everything will be alright!
Great jumble of untold!

Hi UR, =D yep, mudding, as you’ll remember is one of Louis Litt’s favorite activities…the mud bath/soak/mud version of ‘Calgon, take me away’! I am most definitely NOT going to google mudding!! =D …you state it absolutely perfectly that Louis is the most human character ever…we truly do hate him one moment and then want to hug him and give him some chocolate…and a cat!
