The answers to today’s Strands, game #47, are…

• MUSIC
• NEWS
• WEATHER
• SPORTS
• TRAFFIC
• COMEDY
• TALK
• SPANGRAM: DRIVETIME

• My rating: Hard
• My score: Perfect

I’ve marked this one as hard, because I really, really struggled to find a couple of answers, including the spangram. The theme hint – Go to work! – is fairly obtuse, and the first couple of answers I turned up (MUSIC, NEWS) didn’t take me much further.

I could see it was something to do with the media, but nothing more. It was only when I uncovered WEATHER and SPORTS that I started getting a clearer idea. But there my game stalled.

I returned to it after a break and with fresh eyes spotted DRIVETIME, reading ‘backwards’ from the bottom up. Even with that in place it still took me a while to spot COMEDY, which I would never have considered to be a part of the drivetime menu. Still, I got there in the end.
