The answers to today's Strands, game #147, are…

  • JOURNAL
  • TRIBUNE
  • CHRONICAL
  • TIMES
  • GLOBE
  • HERALD
  • SPANGRAM: NEWSPAPER

  • My rating: Easy
  • My score: Perfect

I'd have been a bit annoyed at myself if I'd have got this one wrong – after all, I've worked at several newspapers during my career. The hardest thing today, as it often is, was working out what the theme was, but once that was in place it was a piece of cake.

I found the spangram first, after giving a little thought to what the theme of 'daily delivery' could make. I looked for the likes of LETTERS and PARCELS, then MILK, then spotted NEWS and thought aha! NEWSPAPER was easy after that, and then the likes of JOURNAL and HERALD fell into place with a minimum of fuss.

How did you do today? Send me an email and let me know.
