Back at it with a new week of puzzles! Here is Monday's!

https://app.pinones.io/puzzles/undesirable-quality-in-a-balloon

Instructions (best on desktop):

  1. Solve the grid using the clues provided. The direction of the word is indicated by the number around the grid (so some words are backwards).

  2. After you complete the grid, click the pencil icon tab at the bottom to switch over to solve the anagram. The title is a hint to the anagram!

11:55, as I tried dozens of anagrams before I found the right one.

I thought 2a was a neat clue, with the question mark being a generous touch.

Did any of the anagrams you found go nicely with the title? It's rare but sometimes a puzzle does end up with more than one reasonable answer!

And glad you liked it! I like to employ the cryptic clue convention of using ? if I'm giving a pun or indirect definition

My first answer was really good, but it needed an L that wasn't there. I forgot what it was now.
