NEW Strands today (game #755) – the answers
The answers to today’s Strands, game #755, are…
- TEXT
- MISSION
- LETTER
- MEMO
- POSTCARD
- SPANGRAM: CORRESPONDENCE
- My assessment: Hard
- My score: Perfect
It took me a while to get started today, which is why I’m rating this game as hard.
After discovering EMAIL and understanding the theme, I managed to hit a search containing modern and traditional CORRESPONDENCE formats.
Personally, I’m a big fan of a POSTCARD – in many ways a precursor to the limited space allowed by many social media.
One of the pleasures of thrift shop shopping in Britain, where postcards were an essential element of holidaying in the pre-digital era, is discovering an old postcard sent to a neighbor, which will inevitably describe the weather and the description of a minor injury that befell the sender. Postcards from the past is a good podcast and website on the subject.
