Listen With Others

The annual outing for Kea, following a mathematical last year (Have Fun It’s Wordy) and before that the celebration of Listener no. 4500. This week we had a circular grid with none, one or two letters of each 6-letter entry moving outwards while the others retained their order.

Not really much to say about this except how enjoyable it was and wonder how tricky it was to construct. [See blog on Sunday. Ed.] The message revealed by ring 5 would tell us what was going on and for quite a long time I thought it was going to be celebrating the Century of something. In the end, it was something far more entertaining with the grid representing a Centrifuge using Scrabble[®] values for mass. Thus the letters moving outwards were the “heavier” letters from the game.

A Tour de Force in every way. Thanks, Kea.
