The answers to today's Strands, game #184, are…

  • TOLL
  • RING
  • CLANG
  • PEAL
  • KNELL
  • JINGLE
  • TINKLE
  • CHIME
  • SPANGRAM: BELLTONES

  • My rating: Easy
  • My score: Perfect

Who knew there were so many different words for BELL TONES, as the spangram would have it? Well, me for one – because I found this to be very, very easy. The theme clue of 'Striking sounds' was a fairly hefty hint towards the concept here, and when I spotted TOLL by accident it confirmed my suspicion as to what was needed. Without even needing to look at the board I predicted that the likes of PEAL, RING and CHIME would be there, and the spangram itself was similarly simple to uncover.
