Luton Town were also relegated that season (1991-92) and then eventually fell as far as the National League, for the five seasons from 2009-10 to 2013-14, but they at least have briefly returned to the Premier League in 2023-24, albeit just for that one term.
Where on the internet would you see the name Tracy Bennett on a daily basis?

As the editor or moderator of the New York Times’ daily Wordle puzzle?
She (I assume it's a she) is indeed. Please provide the next conundrum.

Is it by any chance a temporary bowel disorder caused by drinking too much Shepherd Neame beer?

None of these. It is not actually in Kent and you would be best not to knock against it.

Is it a contest similar to the Haxey Hood, where teams from various establishments have to try and get something back in order to win bragging rights for a year?

A rock in the sea.

You are so close I will give it to you. It is a lengthy sandbank that starts off North Foreland and stretches North-North-East halfway across the mouth of the Thames Estuary.
To you to map out a new question.

Good thinking but very far from the truth.

It is something to do with camouflage but what?

Is it like chemiluminesence where marine (or other) creatures use a chemical to change light to match surroundings so they are less likely to be caught by a predator fish?
DaleCooper
Established Member
You're getting very close but need to be more specific about the precise method and application.

Paint for a submarine- early stealth technology?
DaleCooper
Established Member
Stealth yes, paint no, submarine no. They are literally lights but not for illumination in the usual sense.
So where would they be used and to what effect?

Aircraft?
Lights and stealth don't go together surely?
To look like an ordinary passenger plane and not a bomber or fighter?
