Got one word, rather to my surprise because I was sure it would go to the bucket, then gave up.

One word was unusual for the UK in that they use the same components of the word but the wrong way round (or the right way round if you are from the US).

I think I prefer the American version. The other way around sounds like you were careless in the public urinals.

Annoyed that I had to use a hint to get started (after which it was easy)),but consoled by the fact that I'm not alone.

I didn't get the hole reference and didn't see the theme until I got the spangram. US based.

I knew I was in trouble when my first "hole food" was the Spangram. However, there was only one that was particularly difficult.

Quite easy. One to the bucket, unfortunately.
