Some of you may have played NYT Connections. I did today's last night and so was looking online for another one to do.
I found this but can't do it, and it doesn't give you the answers.
Can someone solve it and tell me the answers, it's doing my head in.

I think this is the thing I ignore every single day in the GRcade WhatsApp group chat.

Oh that's frustrating I saw the diamond connection but kept putting in Princess (which is also a diamond cut. And Oval, now I think about it. They're
all diamonds!)

To be fair I hadn't scrolled down to see it, but I was wondering why my guesses weren't going down.
(Olympia) game me a clue about
Kensington as well, but I got muddled with the
Kennington Oval and didn't know there was a Kensington Oval as well

I was just imagining you hitting all the right answers, but not being recognised without the submit.

I was using the wrong terminology, I think. I just meant the "link" between the four choices rather than "clue". I wish it'd give you a hint
