    The answers to today's Strands, game #99, are COLUMN FOLD PAGE BYLINE FOLIO CAPTION ARTICLE SPANGRAM: NEWSPAPER My rating: Easy My score: Perfect

    OK, so I have a bit of an advantage here, having worked on several newspapers (and many more magazines and websites) over the course of my career. If
    you've never been a journalist then answers such as FOLIO, BYLINE and FOLD might have been more difficult to find. But I say 'might', because I suspect this Strands puzzle will be relatively easy to solve even so.

    Much of that is down to a combination of the spangram and the theme clue, which is 'Print edition'. There's not much that the phrase can suggest, and
    it probably won't have taken many people long to spot NEWSPAPER running down the middle of the board from top to bottom.

    With that in place it will probably have been a simple matter to find some of the more obvious of the other answers, such as CAPTION and PAGE, and they
    will in turn have led to the others.

    The answers to today's Strands, game #106, are RISK MONOPOLY TROUBLE CLUE SORRY BATTLESHIP SPANGRAM: BOARDGAMES My rating: Easy My score: Perfect

    This was a relatively easy Strands game, despite the fact that I hadn't heard of a couple of the games in question (and despite one, CLUE, being named CLUEDO in the UK).

    MONOPOLY and RISK both stood out right away, and once I knew what I was looking for, the spangram of BOARDGAMES was simple, too. That split the grid in half, and made it much easier to find the remaining answers. As I mentioned, I wasn't familiar with a couple TROUBLE and SORRY but once the spangram was in place there were only so many words that I could make from
    the remaining letters, so I picked those off one by one with a minimum of fuss.
