I’m surprised “puzzling” didn’t make the cut as a prime ME TIME activity – especially considering the audience. Instead we had some very worthy pastimes. I always aligned ME TIME with something a bit selfish – like eating an entire bag of M&Ms as you binge-watch a season of Slow Horses while your partner is at work. Or maybe that’s just me? Anyway, I digress. The letter X in EXERCISE gave us a particularly easy start, which continued thanks to the plain words, a basic left-to-right spangram and minimal twists and turns. A day off for the Strands compilers so they could enjoy more “ME TIME” perhaps? Yesterday's NYT Strands answers (Wednesday, September 10, game #556) SPANGRAM: SCHOOL SCHEDULE What is NYT Strands?

Previously known by the pseudonym the Pop Detective, his journalistic career began making up stories about Madonna's addiction to sausage rolls (this is not true by the way). A man of few talents, his career is rich and various and includes the highs of interviewing Elton John and Blur; and the lows of interviewing Right Said Fred, appearing on a Channel 5 documentary about Peter Kay, and fact-checking the instruction manual for a German cooker. Somehow still affording to live in North London he is at his happiest riding his bicycle and shouting at pigeons.
