Cracking the Code: “Troubles worsen for landlords (6)“
Ah, the joys of a challenging crossword clue! This week’s puzzle threw a curveball at me with the cryptic phrase “Troubles worsen for landlords (6).” While the clue itself is a bit cryptic, it holds a few valuable hints. We need a six-letter word that relates to both “troubles” and “landlords.”
Firstly, let’s break down the phrase. “Troubles worsen” suggests an escalation of problems. This could point towards a negative consequence or a growing burden. The phrase “for landlords” then narrows our focus to the realm of property and ownership.
This clue requires a bit of lateral thinking. We need to connect the idea of worsening troubles with the situation of landlords.
