The answers to today's Connections, game #582, are YELLOW: TEACH COACH,
GUIDE, SCHOOL, TRAIN GREEN: CACHE BANK, POOL, RESERVE, STORE BLUE: DRIVING INSTRUCTOR DIRECTIVES BRAKE, PARK, SIGNAL, TURN PURPLE: WORM BOOK, EARTH, GLOW, INCH My rating: Easy My score: 1 mistake

In the list of DRIVING INSTRUCTOR DIRECTIVES the one I heard the most during my lessons was BRAKE. I was so bad at driving that my first instructor
refused to take me out after my second lesson I hit a police car in stationary traffic. The police officers thought it was hilarious, the instructor less so.

When I eventually came to take my first test I failed after 10 seconds, after managing not to SIGNAL and then making a TURN in the wrong direction and directly into oncoming vehicles.

I should add that during this period I also crashed my fathers car into a
rock and then a tree.

Fortunately, after a 10-year break it all clicked and I sailed through my second test. Ive even thought about becoming a driving instructor myself, but then I realised Id have to teach people like I was at 17.

Anyway, a lovely Connections today. Certainly less stressful than a driving lesson. Yesterday's NYT Connections answers (Sunday, 12 January, game #581) YELLOW: FABRICATION FAIRY TALE, FANTASY, FICTION, INVENTION GREEN: WOO CHARM, COURT, PURSUE, ROMANCE BLUE: CLASSIC ATARI GAMES ASTEROIDS, BREAKOUT, CENTIPEDE, DEFENDER PURPLE: THINGS FEATURING TAILS COIN TOSS, COMETS, DRESS COAT, SONIC THE HEDGEHOG What is NYT Connections?

NYT Connections is one of several increasingly popular word games made by the New York Times. It challenges you to find groups of four items that share something in common, and each group has a different difficulty level: green
is easy, yellow a little harder, blue often quite tough and purple usually very difficult.

On the plus side, you don't technically need to solve the final one, as
you'll be able to answer that one by a process of elimination. What's more, you can make up to four mistakes, which gives you a little bit of breathing room.

It's a little more involved than something like Wordle, however, and there
are plenty of opportunities for the game to trip you up with tricks. For instance, watch out for homophones and other word games that could disguise the answers.

It's playable for free via the NYT Games site on desktop or mobile.
