The answers to today's Strands, game #185, are ARCHES GLACIER REDWOOD SAGUARO BADLANDS SPANGRAM: NATIONALPARKS My rating: Difficult My score: 4 hints

This is one of those Strands games that will prove much, much harder if you don't live in (or have extensive knowledge of) the United States. I'm not going to complain at length about that the New York Times is a US publication, so I understand why its focus will be there but it makes for a deeply unsatisfying game from my point of view, because I had very little chance of solving it without lots of hints. And why would I? I doubt the average American citizen can name too many UK national parks, either

So here my game was simply asking for a hint, finding the word, finding more hint words, asking for another one and repeat, repeat, repeat. I did get the spangram, plus BADLANDS, but I'm afraid to say I hadn't even heard of
SAGUARO, ARCHES or GLACIER, so really had very little chance of getting a perfect score here.

The answers to today's Strands, game #199, are KNIFE PLIERS HAMMER
SCREWDRIVER WRENCH LEVEL SPANGRAM: TOOLCHEST My rating: Easy My score:
Perfect

Deep in my shed, behind assorted boxes, no-longer-working gadgets and
unneeded cables, covered in dust and surrounded by oh-so-many spiders there
is a box. That box contains my DIY tools. There is a HAMMER, a rusty one admittedly, but it's there all the same. There are many SCREWDRIVERs, some of which I even occasionally use. There is a LEVEL, a KNIFE, a couple of
WRENCHes and some PLIERS the latter of which are entirely rusted up and now useless.

So, solving this Strands puzzle was simply a matter of me thinking about what lurks within my TOOLCHEST. I didn't actually go out there and look because
a) that would be cheating, b) it would be far more effort than I was willing to put in this early in the day and c) those spiders. So. Many. Spiders.

The answers to today's Strands, game #206, are ROUND BRISKET FLANK SIRLOIN SHANK CHUCK RIBEYE SPANGRAM: BEEFCUTS My rating: Easy My score: Perfect

I'm a vegetarian these days, but in my meat-eating days a good steak was
among my greatest culinary pleasures. But maybe I'm not that much of an
expert even so, because I'd never heard of ROUND in this context. That was a slightly unfortunate fact, given that it was the first answer I found today but didn't do much to clarify what it was I was looking for.

Fortunately I came up with BRISKET not long afterwards, and that I had heard of. All that was needed after that was to find the other words, including the spangram of BEEFCUTS, and I was able to dig in and finish this meaty puzzle.
