Hi Strands fans. A nice easy one today, which I breezed through very quickly indeed.
That’s kind of a surprise, as the theme – “Make some noise!” – is maddeningly vague. Fortunately, the two instances of “SQ” on the board set me along the right lines with SQUARK and SQUEAK.
Sandwiched between them was the first four letters of the spangram, so I was quickly able to deduce the theme of the puzzle to refer to PETSOUNDS.
After that, it was plain sailing. I found CHIRP and PURR in the two bottom corners, followed by GROWL to complete the bottom half.
That left three answers to find, all clustered around the top-right corner. BARK was easy to spot, and that opened the door for GRUNT right next to it. All that was left was to connect MEOW to complete the puzzle in double-quick time.
